Overview
This node interacts with the Wassenger WhatsApp API to retrieve the invite code for a specific WhatsApp group. It is useful when you want to programmatically obtain the current invite link or code of a group associated with a particular WhatsApp number managed via Wassenger.
Practical scenarios include:
- Automating group management workflows where invite codes need to be shared or logged.
- Integrating WhatsApp group invite retrieval into CRM or communication platforms.
- Monitoring or auditing group access by fetching invite codes on demand.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| WhatsApp Number | The ID of the WhatsApp number (device) from which the group is managed. |
| Group ID | The ID of the WhatsApp group for which the invite code will be retrieved. |
- WhatsApp Number: Select from available WhatsApp numbers linked to your Wassenger account.
- Group ID: Select the target group associated with the chosen WhatsApp number. The group ID format examples include strings like
447362053576-1500000000or447362053576-1500000000@g.us.
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the invite code information for the specified group. The exact structure depends on the Wassenger API response but typically includes fields such as:
- The invite code or link string.
- Metadata about the group or invite status.
No binary data output is expected from this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active Wassenger WhatsApp API connection authenticated via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node depends on the Wassenger service being accessible and the WhatsApp number and group existing and properly linked in the Wassenger system.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing WhatsApp number or group ID selections can cause errors.
- Network or authentication failures with the Wassenger API may prevent retrieving the invite code.
- If the group does not exist or the WhatsApp number is not authorized, the API call will fail.
Error messages:
- Errors related to "group not found" or "unauthorized" indicate incorrect IDs or permission issues.
- Authentication errors suggest problems with the API key credential setup.
Resolutions:
- Verify that the WhatsApp number and group ID are correct and currently active.
- Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
- Check network connectivity and Wassenger service status.
