Overview

This node manages Zalo groups, enabling various group-related operations through the Zalo API. Specifically, the "Thay Đổi Chủ Nhóm" (Change Group Owner) operation allows you to transfer ownership of a Zalo group to another user by specifying the group's ID and the new owner's user ID.

Common scenarios for this node include:

  • Automating administrative tasks in Zalo groups.
  • Transferring group ownership when the current owner leaves or delegates control.
  • Managing group membership and settings programmatically.

Practical example:

  • A community manager wants to automate transferring group ownership to a new admin without manual intervention. Using this node, they provide the group ID and the new owner's user ID, and the node performs the ownership change via the Zalo API.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID Nhóm The unique identifier of the Zalo group whose ownership is to be changed.
ID Chủ Nhóm Mới The user ID of the person who will become the new owner of the group.

Output

The output JSON contains:

  • status: A string indicating the success status, typically "Thành công" meaning "Success".
  • response: The raw response from the Zalo API after attempting to change the group owner. This may include details about the updated group or confirmation data.

Example output structure:

{
  "status": "Thành công",
  "response": {
    // API response details here
  }
}

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential to authenticate with the Zalo API.
  • The node uses stored credentials including cookie, IMEI, and user agent strings to establish a session with Zalo.
  • The external dependency is the zca-js library which provides the Zalo API client functionality.
  • Proper configuration of the Zalo API credentials within n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or expired credentials can cause authentication failures.
    • Incorrect group ID or user ID parameters may result in errors or no changes.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent API calls from succeeding.

  • Error messages:

    • "No API instance found. Please make sure to provide valid credentials."
      Means the node could not initialize the Zalo API client due to missing or invalid credentials. Verify that the API key and related authentication data are correctly configured.
    • Errors related to parameter validation usually indicate missing or malformed input values. Ensure that both "ID Nhóm" and "ID Chủ Nhóm Mới" are provided and correctly formatted.
    • If the API returns permission errors, confirm that the authenticated user has rights to change the group owner.

  • Resolution tips:

    • Double-check all input parameters.
    • Refresh or re-enter API credentials.
    • Confirm network access to Zalo services.
    • Review Zalo API documentation for any permission requirements.
