Summary

Link a WhatsApp chat or group to a connected session by assigning it a simple alias for easier reference in subsequent workflow steps.

Inputs

  • Session Name (required) — Stable internal name identifying the WhatsApp session (e.g., main-phone or support-phone).
  • Chat JID (required) — Raw WhatsApp chat or group JID, usually obtained from listing discovered chats.
  • Linked Chat (required) — User-friendly alias to identify this linked chat later in the workflow (e.g., support, sales, or team).

Output shape

a single record representing the linked chat alias, including its alias, sessionId, JID, displayName, targetType, and timestamps

The output confirms the linked chat details and can be used to reference this chat alias in other node operations such as sending messages.

Examples

Example 1: Link a discovered WhatsApp group to the session under the alias 'support' to simplify message sending to this chat later.

Provide 'main-phone' as Session Name, the chat JID from the discovered chats list, and 'support' as the Linked Chat alias.
