Zalo Group

Quản lý nhóm Zalo

Overview

This node allows you to interact with Zalo Groups via the Zalo API. Specifically, for the "Lấy Thông Tin Nhóm" (Get Group Info) operation, it retrieves detailed information about a specific Zalo group when provided with its ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch metadata or status of a group for reporting, automation, or integration purposes.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically fetching and logging group details for audit or monitoring.
  • Integrating Zalo group info into dashboards or other communication workflows.
  • Validating group existence or properties before performing further actions.

  • API Rate Limits or Temporary Bans:
    Excessive requests or invalid credentials may result in temporary bans or rate limiting by Zalo.
    Resolution: Space out requests and ensure credentials are valid.
