Wazzap API

Interact with Wazzap API

Overview

This node interacts with the Wazzap API to update the name of a WhatsApp group. It is useful when you want to programmatically rename a group chat in WhatsApp, for example, to reflect changes in the group's purpose or membership. Practical scenarios include automating group management in customer support, team collaboration, or community engagement workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
👥 Group ID (JID) The unique identifier of the WhatsApp group where the name will be updated (e.g., 1234567890-123456@g.us).
👥 Group Name The new name to assign to the WhatsApp group.
⚙️ Additional Options Optional settings to customize the request:
- 🔢 Priority Number Select which sending number to use: 0 = Default, 999 = Random, 1–5 = Specific number slot.
- ⏱️ Delay Settings Configure a delay range before sending the update request: start and end delay in milliseconds.

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the response from the Wazzap API after attempting to update the group name. This typically includes confirmation of the update or error details if the operation failed.

If the node supports binary data output, it would relate to any media or files returned by the API, but this operation primarily deals with JSON responses.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Wazzap API.
  • Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
  • The base URL for API requests is https://doc.wazzap.mx/api-reference.

Troubleshooting

  • Unsupported operation error: If the node throws "Unsupported operation," verify that the selected resource is "Group" and the operation is "Update Group Name."
  • Invalid Group ID: Ensure the Group ID (JID) is correctly formatted and corresponds to an existing WhatsApp group.
  • Permission issues: The API key must have permissions to modify group information; otherwise, the request will fail.
  • Delay settings misconfiguration: Setting invalid delay ranges (e.g., start greater than end) may cause unexpected behavior.
  • Network errors: Check internet connectivity and API endpoint availability.
