Use Case Examples

  1. Sending a notification message to a Lark chat when a new task is created.
  2. Automating daily status updates to a team chat in Lark.

Output

JSON

  • json - The response from the Lark API after sending the message, typically containing status or confirmation details.

Dependencies

  • Requires Lark Custom Bot API credentials, specifically a webhook URL for sending messages.

Troubleshooting

  • If no credentials are provided, the node throws an error 'No credentials returned!'. Ensure the Lark Custom Bot API credentials are correctly configured.
  • If an unknown operation is specified, the node throws an error 'Unknown operation'. Verify the operation parameter is set to 'sendText' for sending messages.
  • If the message text is empty or missing, the API call may fail or send an empty message. Ensure the 'Message Text' property is filled.
