WhatsApp archive

[Illaise]

Is it possible to perform actions on a WhatsApp archive using this API? For example, can we archive chats or, if we are doing a newsletter, can we ignore archived chats?

[allburov]

right now it's possible only to remove chat. https://waha.devlike.pro/docs/how-to/chats/#delete-chat
You can create an issue and we'll add that feature as well, it's probably possible in WEBJS engine (default one)!
