Overview
This node integrates with the Uazapi WhatsApp API to manage WhatsApp groups, specifically allowing you to remove participants from a group. It is useful in scenarios where you need to automate group management tasks such as moderating group membership by removing unwanted or inactive participants.
For example, if you run a community or customer support group on WhatsApp and want to automatically remove users who violate rules or no longer belong to the group, this node can be used within an n8n workflow to perform that action programmatically.
