Overview

This node interacts with Zalo's Poll feature within Zalo Groups. Specifically, the "Lấy thông tin bình chọn" (Get poll information) operation retrieves detailed information about a specific poll by its ID. This is useful for scenarios where you want to programmatically access poll results or metadata in a Zalo group, such as monitoring poll status, analyzing votes, or integrating poll data into other workflows.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically fetching poll details after a poll ends to analyze voting patterns.
  • Integrating poll results into reports or dashboards.
  • Triggering follow-up actions based on poll outcomes.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID bình chọn (poll_id) The numeric ID of the poll to retrieve information for. This is required to specify which poll's details to fetch.

Output

The output JSON contains the following structure:

  • success: A boolean indicating if the request was successful (true).
  • response: An object containing detailed information about the poll retrieved from Zalo's API. This includes all poll metadata and results as provided by the API.
  • poll_id: The ID of the poll that was requested.

Example output JSON structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "response": {
    /* Detailed poll information object from Zalo API */
  },
  "poll_id": 123456
}

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to Zalo's API via an API key credential (referred to generically as "Zalo Credential").
  • The node uses authentication cookies, device IMEI, and user agent strings internally to authenticate requests.
  • Proper configuration of these credentials in n8n is necessary for the node to function.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or expired credentials may cause authentication failures.
    • Providing an incorrect or non-existent poll ID will likely result in errors or empty responses.
    • Network connectivity issues can prevent communication with Zalo's API.

  • Error messages:

    • "No API instance found. Please make sure to provide valid credentials."
      Means the node could not initialize the API client due to missing or invalid credentials. Solution: Verify and reconfigure your Zalo API credentials.
    • Errors related to poll retrieval usually indicate invalid poll IDs or permission issues. Double-check the poll ID and ensure the authenticated user has access rights.
    • If the node throws errors about processing options or parameters, verify that the input properties are correctly set and formatted.
