Overview
The node "Wuzapi Group" enables management of WhatsApp groups through the Wuzapi API. It supports various group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing invite links, joining groups via invite codes, updating group settings (name, description, photo, announcement mode, ephemeral messages), and managing participants (adding, removing, promoting, demoting).
For the Get Invite Info operation specifically, the node retrieves detailed information about a WhatsApp group invite code or link. This is useful when you want to verify or inspect an invite before joining or sharing it.
Practical examples:
- Automatically fetch details about a group invite code received from a user.
- Validate invite codes in workflows before attempting to join groups.
- Extract metadata about group invites for logging or auditing purposes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Invite Code | The WhatsApp group invite code or full invite link to get information about. Required. |
Note: The property expects either a raw invite code string or a full invite URL (e.g., containing chat.whatsapp.com/). The node extracts the actual code from the URL if needed.
Output
The output JSON contains the response from the Wuzapi API about the invite code. This typically includes metadata about the invite such as group name, expiration status, participant count, or other relevant invite details.
The output is structured as an array of JSON objects, each corresponding to one input item processed. Each object holds the invite info data returned by the API.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Wuzapi API with valid API authentication credentials configured in n8n.
- The node uses an internal helper function to make HTTP requests to the Wuzapi endpoints.
- No additional external dependencies beyond the configured API credential are required.
Troubleshooting
- Error: "Binary property ... not found" — Not applicable for this operation but may appear if using other operations involving images.
- Invalid invite code format — Ensure the invite code or link is correctly provided. The node extracts the code from URLs automatically, but malformed inputs may cause errors.
- API request failures — Check that the Wuzapi API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
- Network issues — Verify network connectivity to the Wuzapi API endpoint.
- If the node is set to continue on fail, errors will be returned in the output JSON under an
errorfield.
