Zalo Group

Quản lý nhóm Zalo

Overview

This node interacts with a group management API (likely for the Zalo platform) to retrieve detailed information about a specific group. It is useful when you need to fetch metadata and membership details of a group by its unique identifier.

Common scenarios include:

  • Displaying group details in an automation workflow.
  • Synchronizing group member lists with other systems.
  • Auditing or monitoring group membership changes.

Practical example:

  • Given a group ID, the node fetches the list of members, admins, current members, and other relevant group statistics, enabling further processing or reporting within an n8n workflow.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID Nhóm The unique identifier of the group whose information you want to retrieve. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing detailed information about the specified group. The structure includes:

  • members: An array listing the members of the group.
  • admins: An array listing the administrators of the group.
  • currentMems: An array of current members.
  • updateMems: An array representing members who have been updated.
  • totalMember: A number indicating the total count of members in the group.

The output is paired with the input item index for traceability.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token credential configured in n8n to access the group management API.
  • Depends on a shared API client class that handles requests to the external service.
  • The node expects valid cookie, IMEI, and user agent values for authentication, which it retrieves from credentials or input data.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing group ID will cause the API call to fail.
    • Authentication errors if the API token or cookies are invalid or expired.
    • Network connectivity problems may prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • If the API client instance cannot be created, the node throws an error indicating failure to initialize the API connection.
    • Errors returned from the API are caught and either returned as part of the output JSON (if "continue on fail" is enabled) or cause the node execution to stop with an error referencing the failed item index.
  • Resolutions:

    • Ensure the group ID is correct and exists.
    • Verify that the API authentication credentials are properly set up and valid.
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
    • Enable "continue on fail" in the node settings to handle partial failures gracefully.
