Zalo User Interact

Overview

This node operation, Disperse Group, is designed to disperse or disband a group in the Zalo platform by its Group ID. It is useful when you want to programmatically dissolve a group, removing all members and effectively deleting the group from the system.

Typical use cases include:

• Automating group management workflows where groups are temporary and need to be cleaned up after an event.
• Integrating with other systems that require dynamic creation and removal of communication groups.
• Managing user communities or chat groups in bulk via automation.

Example: After completing a project, you might want to disperse the project’s discussion group automatically to keep your workspace clean.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the disperse group operation. The structure typically includes:

• A success flag indicating whether the operation was successful.
• Any error messages or codes if the operation failed.
• Additional metadata about the operation status.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Zalo API.
• Depends on the Zalo platform's API endpoint for group management.
• The node implementation uses HTTP requests to communicate with Zalo's backend services.
• Proper network access and permissions to call Zalo APIs are necessary.
• No additional external libraries beyond standard n8n dependencies are required.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

• Invalid Group Id: If the provided Group Id does not exist or is malformed, the API will return an error.
• Authentication Failure: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication errors.
• Permission Denied: The authenticated user may lack permission to disperse the specified group.
• Network Errors: Connectivity issues can prevent the API call from succeeding.

Error Messages and Resolutions

• "Group not found": Verify the Group Id is correct and the group exists.
• "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and valid.
• "Permission denied": Ensure the API user has rights to manage the group.
• Timeout or Network errors: Confirm network connectivity and retry.
