Overview

This node operation updates the configuration of an existing WhatsApp session using the WARest WhatsApp REST API. It allows users to modify session settings such as webhook URL, webhook secret, and whether to trigger a preflight call before saving the configuration. This operation is useful for managing session behavior and integrating webhook callbacks for real-time updates.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating the webhook URL and secret for a session to receive event callbacks.
  2. Enabling a preflight check before applying new session configuration settings.
