Overview
The node "ZuckZapGo Group" allows managing WhatsApp groups through the ZuckZapGo API. It supports a variety of group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing invite links, joining or leaving groups, updating group settings (like announce mode, description, ephemeral messages), changing group photos, and managing participants.
The Set Announce operation specifically enables toggling the announce mode of a WhatsApp group, which controls whether only admins can send messages in the group. This is useful for scenarios where group owners want to restrict messaging to admins only, such as announcement channels or official communication groups.
Practical example:
- A community manager wants to make announcements in a WhatsApp group without members replying. They use this node with the Set Announce operation to enable announce mode, so only admins can post messages.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Group JID | The unique identifier (Jabber ID) of the WhatsApp group to operate on. Example: 120363312246943103@g.us |
| Announce Mode | Boolean flag indicating if announce mode is enabled (true) or disabled (false). When enabled, only admins can send messages in the group. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the ZuckZapGo API for the performed operation. For the Set Announce operation, the output typically contains confirmation of the announce mode being set, including any relevant status or updated group details returned by the API.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the ZuckZapGo API.
- Requires an API key credential configured in n8n for authenticating requests to the ZuckZapGo service.
- The node uses internal helper functions to validate phone numbers and prepare media data (not applicable for this operation).
