Overview
The node "Evolution API" allows users to interact with the Evolution API, specifically enabling sending status updates (stories) through a messaging platform. The "Enviar Estado" operation under the "Mensaje" resource lets users publish different types of status updates such as text, images, videos, or audio. This is useful for automating status sharing in workflows, for example, broadcasting announcements, sharing media updates, or posting quick text statuses to selected contacts or all contacts.
Practical examples:
- Sending a text status update like "Out of office until Monday."
- Sharing an image or video story with a caption to a group of contacts.
- Broadcasting an audio message as a status to all contacts.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nombre De La Instancia | The name of the instance that will send the status update. |
| Tipo De Estado | Type of status to publish: Estado De Texto (text), Estado De Imagen (image), Estado De Video (video), Estado De Audio (audio). |
| Contenido O URL | Content or URL of the media (image/video/audio) to be published. Required for all types. |
| Texto Para Estado De Imagen/Video | Caption text for image or video status updates. Optional. |
| Color De Fondo | Background color for the status (hex color code). |
| Fuente Del Texto | Font type for the text in the status. Options: SERIF, NORICAN REGULAR, BRYNDAN WRITE, BEBASNEUE REGULAR, OSWALD HEAVY. |
| Enviar A Todos | Boolean flag indicating whether to send the status to all contacts. |
| Lista De Contactos | Comma-separated list of contacts who will receive the status. Required if not sending to all. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array containing the response from the Evolution API after attempting to send the status update. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes confirmation of the sent status or error details.
If the status includes media (image, video, audio), the node handles URLs pointing to these resources; however, it does not output binary data directly.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Evolution API.
- The node expects the Evolution API base URL and headers to be configured internally.
- No additional external dependencies are indicated beyond the API access.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues:
- Missing required fields such as "Nombre De La Instancia" or "Contenido O URL" will cause errors.
- Providing an invalid contact list format may result in failure to deliver statuses.
- Selecting incompatible options, e.g., providing a caption for a text-only status, might be ignored or cause unexpected behavior.
- Error messages:
- "Operação não suportada." indicates the chosen operation-resource combination is not implemented.
- API authentication failures due to invalid or missing credentials.
- Resolutions:
- Ensure all required properties are filled correctly.
- Verify the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
- Confirm the contact list is properly formatted when not sending to all contacts.
