Non Official Whatsapp API

Overview

The Quepasa (Whatsapp) node's "Information" resource with the default operation retrieves general information about the connected WhatsApp bot or service via the Quepasa API. This is typically used to verify connectivity, check bot status, or fetch metadata about the WhatsApp integration.
Common scenarios:

  • Testing if your Quepasa WhatsApp bot credentials are valid and the API is reachable.
  • Fetching basic info for monitoring or diagnostics in an automation workflow.

Example use case:
You might add this node at the start of a workflow to ensure the WhatsApp bot is online before sending messages or processing webhooks.


Properties

Display Name Type Meaning
Authentication options Selects how to provide credentials: either manually ("Parameters") or from n8n credentials ("Predefined Quepasa Credentials").
BaseUrl string The base URL of the Quepasa API. Required if using manual parameters.
Token string The authentication token for the WhatsApp bot. Required if using manual parameters.

Note:

  • "BaseUrl" and "Token" are only required when "Authentication" is set to "Parameters".
  • When using "Predefined Quepasa Credentials", these values are taken from the selected credential in n8n.

Output

The output is a single JSON object containing information about the WhatsApp bot or service.
Typical fields may include (but are not limited to):

{
  "id": "string",
  "name": "string",
  "status": "string",
  "version": "string",
  // ...other metadata fields as provided by the /info endpoint
}
  • The exact structure depends on the Quepasa API /info response.
  • No binary data is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires access to a running Quepasa WhatsApp API instance.
  • API Key/Token: You must provide a valid Token (either directly or via n8n credentials).
  • n8n Configuration: If using "Predefined Quepasa Credentials", you need to configure the corresponding credential type (quepasaTokenAuthApi) in n8n.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues:

  • Invalid Token or BaseUrl: If the token or base URL is incorrect, the node will throw an authentication error.
  • Network Errors: If the Quepasa API is unreachable, you'll see connection errors.
  • Missing Credentials: If required credentials are not provided, the node will fail to execute.

Error Messages & Resolutions:

  • "Authentication failed" or similar: Double-check your Token and BaseUrl, or ensure your n8n credentials are correct.
  • "Cannot connect to Quepasa API": Verify network connectivity and that the API endpoint is accessible.
  • "Required parameter missing": Ensure all required properties are filled based on your authentication method.
