Wasup

Send WhatsApp messages and manage instances via the Wasup API

Profile → Set Status (About)

AI-generated

Summary

Updates the WhatsApp "About" (status) text of a chosen Wasup instance by sending a PUT request to the instance's profile status endpoint.

Inputs

  • Instance (required) — The WhatsApp instance to update. Pick from a searchable list of instances or enter its ID directly (e.g. wa_lxyz123_abc45).
  • Status (About) (required) — The new About text to set on the profile, e.g. "We reply within minutes!".

Output shape

One output item per input item, containing the JSON response from the Wasup API for PUT /api/instances/{id}/profile/status.

The exact response fields aren't defined in the node, so they depend on the Wasup server. If the API returns an array, each element becomes its own item. With Continue On Fail enabled, a failed item outputs {error: message} instead of stopping the workflow. The request is made once per input item, so each item can use a different instance or status.

Examples

Example 1: Set an after-hours About message on a support number.

Resource: Profile; Operation: Set Status (About); Instance: pick from list; Status (About): "Closed – back at 9am"

Example 2: Set each instance's About text dynamically from upstream data.

Instance: By ID with expression {{$json.instanceId}}; Status (About): expression {{$json.aboutText}}
