Overview

This node, named "Zalo User," manages interactions with Zalo user accounts through various operations such as managing friend requests, blocking/unblocking users, changing account settings, and retrieving user information. Specifically, the operation "Lấy danh sách bạn bè" (Get all friends) fetches a list of friends for the authenticated Zalo user.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating social media workflows involving Zalo contacts.
  • Integrating Zalo user data into CRM or marketing platforms.
  • Managing friend lists programmatically for outreach or analysis.
  • Synchronizing Zalo contacts with other systems.

For example, you can use this node to retrieve up to a specified number of friends from a Zalo account and then process or export that list for further use.

Properties

Name Meaning
Limit The maximum number of friends to retrieve from the user's friend list. Default is 50.

Output

The output JSON contains a single field:

  • friends: An array of friend objects representing the retrieved friends from the Zalo account. Each object corresponds to a friend’s details as returned by the Zalo API.

Example output structure:

{
  "friends": [
    {
      "id": "123456789",
      "name": "Friend Name",
      "avatar": "https://example.com/avatar.jpg",
      ...
    },
    ...
  ]
}

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential to authenticate with the Zalo platform.
  • The node uses stored credentials including a cookie, device IMEI, and user agent string to establish a session with Zalo's API.
  • The external library zca-js is used internally to interact with the Zalo API.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Credentials or Session: If the node cannot create an API instance, it will throw an error indicating no API instance was found. Ensure that valid Zalo API credentials are provided, including a valid cookie, IMEI, and user agent.
  • Rate Limits or API Errors: The Zalo API may impose rate limits or restrictions; if errors occur, verify API usage limits and permissions.
  • Empty Friend List: If the friend list is empty, confirm that the authenticated user has friends and that the API credentials have sufficient access rights.
  • Continue on Fail: If enabled, the node will continue processing subsequent items even if one fails, returning error messages in the output JSON under the error field.
