Overview
This node operation retrieves groups from a specified session in a WhatsApp automation context. It is useful for scenarios where you need to manage or analyze WhatsApp groups associated with a particular session, such as fetching group details for reporting or automation workflows.
Use Case Examples
- Fetch all WhatsApp groups from a session to monitor group activity.
- Retrieve group information to automate messaging or notifications to specific groups.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Session | The name of the WhatsApp session from which to retrieve groups. |
| Request Options | Settings to control request behavior such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy usage, and timeout duration. |
Output
JSON
groups- Array of group objects retrieved from the specified session, containing details about each WhatsApp group.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential or authentication token for the WhatsApp automation service to access session data.
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the session name is correct and active; an invalid session will cause the request to fail.
- If SSL errors occur, consider enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but be aware of security risks.
- Proxy settings must be correctly configured if used; incorrect proxy details can block requests.
- Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or unresponsive; increase the timeout setting if needed.
