Overview
This node operation allows users to change the avatar image of a specific group in the Zalo platform. It is useful for automating group management tasks such as updating group profile pictures based on external triggers or workflows. For example, a marketing team could automatically update their group avatar to reflect current campaigns or events without manual intervention.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| ID Nhóm | The unique identifier (ID) of the group whose avatar will be changed. This is a required string input. |
| URL Ảnh | The URL of the new avatar image to set for the group. This must be a valid image URL and is required. |
Output
The output JSON contains the response from the Zalo API after attempting to change the group's avatar. Typically, this includes status information indicating success or failure and any relevant data returned by the API about the updated group avatar.
Example structure:
{
"status": "Thành công",
"response": {
// API response details about the avatar change
}
}
No binary data output is produced by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Zalo platform.
- The node internally uses a class instance that manages cookies, user agent strings, and device identifiers (IMEI) to interact with the Zalo API.
- Proper configuration of these credentials and environment variables within n8n is necessary for successful execution.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or expired API authentication token may cause authorization failures.
- Incorrect group ID or image URL format can lead to API errors.
- Network connectivity problems might prevent communication with the Zalo API.
Error messages:
- If the node throws an error related to missing or invalid credentials, verify that the API key credential is correctly configured.
- Errors indicating failure to find the group or update the avatar usually mean the provided group ID is incorrect or the user does not have permission.
- Unexpected errors during execution are caught and can be output per item if the node is set to continue on failure; otherwise, they stop the workflow.
