Zalo Group

Quản lý nhóm Zalo

Overview

This node manages Zalo groups by interacting with the Zalo API. It supports various group-related operations such as creating groups, retrieving group information, managing members and deputies, changing group details (name or avatar), and creating notes within groups.

The "Đổi Tên Nhóm" (Change Group Name) operation specifically allows users to rename an existing Zalo group by providing the group's ID and the new desired name.

Practical examples:

  • Renaming a project team group after a rebranding.
  • Updating a family or friends group name to reflect a new event or theme.
  • Correcting typos or outdated names in group titles.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID Nhóm The unique identifier of the Zalo group to rename.
Tên Mới The new name to assign to the specified Zalo group.

Output

The output JSON contains the response from the Zalo API after attempting to change the group name. This typically includes confirmation details about the updated group name or related metadata returned by the API.

Example output structure:

{
  "groupId": "string",
  "newName": "string",
  "status": "success"
}

(Note: Actual fields depend on the Zalo API response.)

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires valid Zalo API credentials including authentication tokens such as cookies, device IMEI, and user agent strings.
  • The node depends on the external zca-js library for interfacing with the Zalo API.
  • Proper configuration of the Zalo API credential in n8n is necessary to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Credentials: If the provided API credentials (cookie, IMEI, user agent) are missing or invalid, the node will fail to instantiate the API client and throw an error indicating no API instance was found. Ensure credentials are correctly set up.
  • Group Not Found: Providing an incorrect or non-existent group ID may cause the API to return errors or empty responses. Verify the group ID before running the node.
  • Permission Issues: The authenticated user must have permission to rename the group; otherwise, the API call may fail.
  • Network Errors: Connectivity issues with the Zalo API endpoint can cause timeouts or failures.
  • Error Handling: If the node is configured to continue on failure, errors for individual items will be captured in the output JSON under an error field.
