ZuckZapGo Group

Manage WhatsApp groups with ZuckZapGo API

Overview

This node allows managing WhatsApp groups using 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 name, description, photo, announcement mode, ephemeral messages), locking/unlocking group info, and managing participants.

The "Set Locked" operation specifically controls whether only group admins can modify the group's information, effectively locking or unlocking the group info for regular members.

Common scenarios:

  • Automating group management tasks in WhatsApp for community or team coordination.
  • Locking group info to prevent unauthorized changes by non-admin members.
  • Integrating WhatsApp group updates into broader workflows, e.g., CRM or event management systems.

Example:

  • Automatically lock a WhatsApp group after an event to preserve its settings.
  • Unlock the group later to allow admins to update info as needed.

Properties

Name Meaning
Group JID The unique identifier (JID) of the WhatsApp group to operate on. Example: 120363312246943103@g.us
Locked Status Boolean flag indicating whether only admins can modify group info (true = locked, false = unlocked)

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the ZuckZapGo API for the requested operation. For the "Set Locked" operation, the output typically confirms the success or failure of locking/unlocking the group info.

The output structure depends on the API response but generally includes status details about the group lock state.

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the ZuckZapGo API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node uses the ZuckZapGo API endpoints to perform group management actions.
  • Proper permissions and valid group JIDs are necessary for successful API calls.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Group JID: If the provided group JID is incorrect or does not exist, the API call will fail. Verify the group JID format and correctness.
  • Insufficient Permissions: Attempting to lock/unlock a group without admin rights may result in errors. Ensure the authenticated user has admin privileges in the group.
  • API Request Failures: Network issues or invalid API credentials can cause request failures. Check API key validity and network connectivity.
  • Missing Required Parameters: The node requires the "Group JID" and "Locked Status" properties for this operation. Omitting these will cause errors.
  • Error Message Handling: Errors returned by the API are passed through; enabling "Continue On Fail" in the node settings can help handle errors gracefully in workflows.
