Evolution API

Interact with Evolution API

Overview

The node interacts with the Evolution API, specifically supporting operations on various resources. For the Profile resource, it supports updating the profile picture by providing a URL to an image. This operation is useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically update a user's profile picture in an external system via the Evolution API, such as automating user profile management or syncing profile images from another service.

Properties

Instance Name The name of the instance to connect to within the Evolution API environment.

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the response from the Evolution API after attempting to update the profile picture. The exact structure depends on the API's response but typically includes confirmation of success or details about the updated profile picture.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Evolution API.
  • The base URL for requests is https://doc.evolution-api.com/api-reference.
  • Proper configuration of the API credential in n8n is necessary to authorize requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Unsupported operation error: If the node throws an error stating the operation is unsupported, verify that the "Resource" is set to "Profile" and the "Operation" is set to "Update Profile Picture".
  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
  • Invalid image URL: The provided image URL must be accessible and valid; otherwise, the API may reject the request.
