Connect with Whatsapp HTTP API

Overview

This node operation deletes a chat session by specifying the session name and chat ID. It is useful for managing chat data by removing unwanted or obsolete chat sessions from a system. For example, it can be used in customer support workflows to delete chat histories after a case is closed or to maintain privacy by removing sensitive chat data.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a chat session by providing the session name and chat ID to clean up chat records.
  2. Automating chat data management by removing chats that are no longer needed after a certain period.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session The name of the chat session to delete. This is required to identify which session the chat belongs to.
Chat Id The unique identifier of the chat to be deleted. This is required to specify the exact chat to remove.
Request Options Additional options to customize the HTTP request such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout duration.

Output

JSON

  • success - Indicates whether the chat deletion was successful.
  • message - Additional information or status message about the deletion operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key or authentication token to access the chat service API.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the session name and chat ID are correct and exist in the system; otherwise, the deletion will fail.
  • If SSL certificate validation fails and the request is blocked, enable the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option to bypass this check (not recommended for production).
  • Check proxy settings if the request cannot reach the server due to network restrictions.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; increase the timeout setting if necessary.
