Group → Add Participants
AI-generatedOverview
This node operation adds participants to an existing WhatsApp group using the MegaAPI WhatsApp service. It is useful for WhatsApp group administrators who want to programmatically add multiple participants to a group by specifying the group's unique identifier (Group JID) and the participants' phone numbers. For example, an admin can automate adding new members to a community or team group without manual intervention.
Use Case Examples
- Add multiple phone numbers as participants to a WhatsApp group by providing the group JID and a comma-separated list of participant phone numbers.
- Automate group management by integrating this node in workflows that update group membership based on external triggers.
