Overview

This node operation creates a new instance in the Zapin EVO system. It is useful for users who want to programmatically set up and configure new instances with specific behaviors, proxy settings, RabbitMQ integration, webhook configurations, and Chatwoot integration for managing WhatsApp communications. For example, a user can create an instance with automatic call rejection, message reading, and webhook event monitoring to automate WhatsApp message handling and customer support workflows.

Use Case Examples

1. Create a WhatsApp instance with automatic message reading and webhook integration to receive real-time message events.
2. Set up an instance with proxy settings and RabbitMQ enabled to handle media data and event notifications.
3. Configure an instance to integrate with Chatwoot for customer support, including importing contacts and messages.

Properties

Output

JSON

• instanceId - The unique identifier of the created instance.
• instanceName - The name of the created instance.
• status - The status of the instance creation operation, e.g., success or failure.
• pairingCode - The pairing code sent to the WhatsApp number if provided, used to link the instance.

Dependencies

• An API key credential for authenticating with the Zapin EVO API.

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the required 'Instance Name' is provided; missing this will cause validation errors.
• If using an API key, verify it is correct and has the necessary permissions to create instances.
• Check network connectivity and proxy settings if the instance creation fails due to connection issues.
• Verify that the WhatsApp number is correctly formatted if provided, to receive the pairing code.
• If webhook or RabbitMQ events are not triggering, confirm the URLs and event selections are correctly configured.
