Set up inbound SMS handling from an intake
When a new SMS process is agreed, turn its setup request into a ClickSend rule without a separate setup chase.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Inbound SMS Automation
Tool to create a new inbound SMS automation rule in ClickSend. Use when you need to set up automated actions to trigger when inbound SMS messages are received.
Why this helps
Inbound message handling can stall when creating the supporting rule gets separated from the decision to use it.
- Make rule setup part of an intake process
- Reduce repeated account setup work
- Keep the requested handling details together
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ClickSend once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis: When an inbound SMS setup request arrives, create the ClickSend automation rule using the supplied details and report the result.
- 4Pick a Notis webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real setup request and confirm the rule configuration in ClickSend.
Questions about this workflow
Does creating the rule process old messages?
The action creates an automation rule for inbound SMS. It does not describe replaying historical messages.
What details must the request provide?
Provide the configuration details required by ClickSend's rule creation action. Notis should report missing information rather than invent it.
Can I use it to send an outbound reply?
This action creates an inbound SMS automation rule. It does not itself send an SMS reply.
