Overview
This node interacts with the Evolution API to update a user's profile privacy settings. It allows users to configure who can see their read receipts, profile photo, status, online presence, last seen time, and who can add them to groups. This is useful for managing privacy preferences in messaging or social platforms where controlling visibility of personal information is important.
Practical examples:
- A user wants to hide their "last seen" status from everyone except their contacts.
- A user prefers that only specific contacts can see their profile photo.
- Restricting group invitations to contacts only to avoid spam.
