Overview
This node operation allows users to react to a specific WhatsApp message using an emoji reaction. It is useful in scenarios where automated or programmatic message reactions are needed, such as acknowledging receipt, expressing sentiment, or interacting with messages in a chat or group. For example, a bot can automatically react with a thumbs-up emoji to confirm a message was seen or understood.
Use Case Examples
- Automatically react to customer messages with a thumbs-up emoji to confirm receipt.
- Add emoji reactions to messages in group chats to facilitate quick feedback or voting.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Session | The WhatsApp session to use for sending the reaction. This identifies the active WhatsApp account or connection. |
| Recipient / Chat (to) | The phone number or JID of the chat or recipient where the message to react to is located. |
| Message ID | The unique identifier of the message to which the reaction will be added. |
| Emoji | The emoji character to use as the reaction to the message. Defaults to thumbs-up (👍). |
Output
JSON
json- The response from the WhatsApp REST API after adding the reaction, typically including confirmation details or updated message state.
Dependencies

Troubleshooting
- Ensure the session ID corresponds to an active and connected WhatsApp session.
- Verify the 'to' field is a valid phone number or JID in the correct format.

- The emoji must be a valid Unicode emoji character; invalid or unsupported emojis may cause errors.
