Overview
This node allows managing WhatsApp groups using the Wuzapi API. It supports a variety of group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing invite links, joining or leaving groups, updating group settings (name, description, photo, announcement mode, ephemeral messages, locked status), and managing participants (adding, removing, promoting, demoting).
Common scenarios include automating group management tasks in WhatsApp for community management, customer support groups, event coordination, or marketing campaigns. For example, you can automatically create a new group with specified participants, update the group topic, or remove participants based on external triggers.
