Zalo Group

Quản lý nhóm Zalo

Overview

This node manages Zalo groups by interacting with the Zalo API. It supports various group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing members and deputies, changing group avatars or names, and listing all groups.

The "Đổi Tên Nhóm" (Change Group Name) operation specifically allows users to rename an existing Zalo group by providing the group's ID and the new desired name.

Practical examples:

  • Renaming a project discussion group to reflect a new project phase.
  • Updating a social group’s name to better represent its current purpose.
  • Automating group name changes based on external triggers or workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID Nhóm The unique identifier of the Zalo group to rename.
Tên Mới The new name to assign to the specified Zalo group.

Output

The output JSON contains the response from the Zalo API after attempting to change the group name. This typically includes confirmation details about the updated group name or status information returned by the API.

Example output structure:

{
  "groupId": "string",
  "newName": "string",
  "status": "success"
}

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

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires valid Zalo API credentials including authentication tokens such as cookies, device IMEI, and user agent strings.
  • The node depends on the zca-js library to interact with the Zalo API.
  • 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.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent API communication.
  • 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 ID or permissions usually indicate the group does not exist or the authenticated user lacks rights to rename it.
    • If the node throws errors during execution but "Continue On Fail" is enabled, error details will be included in the output JSON under the error field.
