Relacio - WhatsAppInstall

Overview

The node "Relacio - WhatsApp" integrates with a WhatsApp relationship platform, enabling various operations related to WhatsApp contacts, channels, messages, protocols, groups, marketing campaigns, and more. Specifically, the "Contato - Importar" (Contact - Import) operation allows users to import a new WhatsApp contact into the platform by providing essential contact details.

This node is beneficial in scenarios where businesses want to automate the management of their WhatsApp contacts within workflows, such as importing customer contacts from external sources, syncing contact lists, or onboarding new clients automatically into their WhatsApp communication system.

Example use case: Automatically importing a new customer's WhatsApp number and name into the platform when they sign up on a website, ensuring they can be reached via WhatsApp for notifications or support.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the contact import operation. This typically includes confirmation details about the imported contact, such as identifiers assigned by the platform or status messages indicating success or failure.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authentication with the Relacio WhatsApp platform.
• The node depends on the external Relacio platform API to perform contact import and other operations.
• Proper configuration of the API credentials in n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Incorrect phone number format may cause the import to fail. Ensure the number includes the country code and follows the recommended pattern.
  • Missing required fields like the contact's phone number or name will prevent the operation from completing.
  • Using the main WhatsApp channel ID when multiple channels exist might lead to unexpected behavior; it is recommended to specify a channel ID if available.
  • Authentication errors due to invalid or missing API credentials.

• Error messages:

  • Errors related to invalid phone number format: Verify the number includes the country code and matches the expected pattern.
  • Authorization errors: Check that the API key credential is correctly set up and has the necessary permissions.
  • Network or API connectivity issues: Confirm network access and that the Relacio platform API is reachable.
