Zalo Group

Quản lý nhóm Zalo

Actions13

Overview

This node manages Zalo groups, allowing users to perform various group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing members, changing group details, and handling group notes. Specifically, the "Đổi Tên Nhóm" (Change Group Name) operation lets users rename an existing Zalo group by providing the group's ID and the new desired name.

Practical scenarios include:

  • Renaming a group to reflect a change in purpose or membership.
  • Automating group management tasks within workflows that integrate with Zalo.
  • Keeping group names consistent with organizational standards or events.

Example: Automatically update a group's name after a project phase ends to indicate completion.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID Nhóm The unique identifier of the Zalo group to rename. This is required to specify which group will be renamed.
Tên Mới The new name to assign to the specified group. This is the updated group name that will replace the current one.

Output

The output JSON contains the response from the Zalo API after attempting to change the group name. It typically includes confirmation details about the operation's success and any relevant data returned by the API.

Example output structure:

{
  "someApiResponseField": "value",
  ...
}

(Note: The exact fields depend on the Zalo API's response for the changeGroupName method.)

Dependencies

  • Requires valid Zalo API credentials including authentication cookies, device IMEI, and user agent strings.
  • The node uses an external Zalo API client library (zca-js) to interact with Zalo services.
  • Proper configuration of the Zalo API credential in n8n is necessary to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or expired credentials may cause authentication failures.
    • Providing an incorrect or non-existent group ID will result in errors from the API.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.

  • Error messages:

    • "No API instance found. Please make sure to provide valid credentials."
      Resolution: Verify that the Zalo API credentials are correctly set up and not expired.
    • Errors related to invalid group IDs or permissions usually come directly from the Zalo API; ensure the group ID exists and the authenticated user has rights to rename it.
    • If the node fails but "Continue On Fail" is enabled, error details will be included in the output JSON for each failed item.
