DinastiAPI Group

Overview

This node integrates with the DinastiAPI API to manage WhatsApp groups. It supports a variety of group-related operations such as creating groups, joining via invite codes, retrieving group information, managing participants, and updating group settings like name, description, photo, and permissions.

A common use case is automating WhatsApp group management within workflows, for example:

• Automatically creating a new group and adding participants.
• Joining a group using an invite code received from another system.
• Fetching group details or invite link to share externally.
• Updating group settings or participant roles based on external triggers.

Specifically, the Join operation allows the user to join a WhatsApp group by providing a valid invite code or invite link.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the DinastiAPI API for the join operation. This typically includes confirmation of the join action and any relevant metadata returned by the API.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the DinastiAPI service.
• Needs an API authentication credential configured in n8n to authorize requests.
• The node uses internal helper functions to validate phone numbers and prepare media data (not applicable for Join operation).

Troubleshooting

• Invalid invite code or link: If the invite code is malformed or expired, the API may return an error. Ensure the invite code is correct and current.
• Missing required property: The "Invite Code" must be provided; otherwise, the node will throw an error.
• Network or authentication errors: Verify that the API credentials are correctly set up and that the DinastiAPI service is reachable.
• Unexpected errors: Enable "Continue On Fail" to handle errors gracefully within workflows.
