Overview

This node integrates with the Zalo Poll API to manage polls within the Zalo platform. Specifically, the "Khóa bình chọn" (Lock Poll) operation allows users to lock a poll by its ID, preventing further votes or changes. This is useful in scenarios where a poll has reached its deadline or when the poll creator wants to finalize results.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically locking a poll after a certain time period.
  • Locking a poll based on external triggers or workflow conditions.
  • Managing poll lifecycle programmatically within an automation.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID bình chọn The numeric ID of the poll to be locked. This identifies which poll will be locked.

Output

The node outputs JSON data with the following structure:

  • success: A boolean indicating if the lock operation was successful.
  • response: The raw response from the Zalo API regarding the lock action. This typically contains confirmation details or status.
  • poll_id: The ID of the poll that was locked.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Example output JSON:

{
  "success": true,
  "response": { /* API response object */ },
  "poll_id": 123456
}

Dependencies

  • Requires valid Zalo API credentials including an API key credential with cookie, IMEI, and user agent information.
  • The node uses the zca-js library to interact with the Zalo API.
  • Proper configuration of the Zalo API credential in n8n is necessary for authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or expired credentials may cause authentication failures.
    • Providing a non-existent or incorrect poll ID will result in errors from the API.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent communication with the Zalo API.

  • Error messages:

    • "No API instance found. Please make sure to provide valid credentials."
      Means the node could not initialize the API client due to missing or invalid credentials. Verify your Zalo API credential setup.
    • Errors related to poll ID usually indicate the poll does not exist or you lack permission to modify it.
    • If the node throws errors about processing input parameters, ensure the poll ID is provided as a number and is valid.

  • Resolution tips:

    • Double-check the poll ID input.
    • Confirm that the Zalo API credentials are correctly configured and active.
    • Use the node's logging to inspect detailed error messages.
