Evolution API

Interact with Evolution API

Overview

This node interacts with the Evolution API to perform various operations related to groups. Specifically, the "Update Group Name" operation allows users to change the name of an existing group by providing the group ID and the new desired name. This is useful in scenarios where group names need to be updated for clarity, rebranding, or organizational changes.

Practical examples include:

  • Renaming a project team group after a project phase completion.
  • Updating a community group name to reflect new membership or purpose.
  • Correcting typos or standardizing naming conventions across groups.

Properties

Name Meaning
Instance Name The name of the instance that will perform the group name update.
Group ID The unique identifier of the group whose name is to be updated.
New Group Name The new name to assign to the specified group.

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the result of the update operation. Each item in the output corresponds to the response from the Evolution API after attempting to update the group name. The structure typically includes confirmation details such as success status or updated group information.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Evolution API.
  • The node expects the Evolution API base URL and headers to be configured internally.
  • Network access to the Evolution API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Unsupported operation error: If the node throws an error stating the operation is unsupported, verify that the resource is set to "groups-api" and the operation to "update-group-name".
  • Invalid Group ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent group ID may cause the API to return an error. Ensure the group ID is valid.
  • Authentication errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will prevent successful requests. Confirm that the API key credential is correctly configured.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems can cause timeouts or failures. Check network access to the Evolution API service.
