Overview

This node interacts with the Evolution API to send a PTV (Picture/Video) message to a specified recipient. It is useful in scenarios where automated sending of video messages is required, such as in customer support, marketing campaigns, or notification systems. For example, a business can use this node to send promotional videos directly to customers' messaging apps.

Use Case Examples

  1. Sending a promotional video to a customer using their messaging app ID.
  2. Automating video message delivery for customer support updates.

Properties

Name Meaning
Instance Name The name of the Evolution API instance to use for sending the message.
Recipient Number The remoteJid (unique identifier) of the recipient to whom the video message will be sent.
Video URL The URL of the video that will be sent as a PTV message.

Output

  • messageId - The unique identifier of the sent message.
  • status - The status of the message sending operation (e.g., success, failure).
  • timestamp - The time when the message was sent.

Dependencies

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the 'Instance Name' is correctly specified and matches the configured Evolution API instance.
  • Verify that the 'Recipient Number' is a valid remoteJid format accepted by the Evolution API.
  • Check that the 'Video URL' is accessible and points to a valid video file.
  • Common errors include unsupported operations if the resource or operation names are incorrect, or authentication failures if the API key is invalid or missing.
