Turn an Akta company signal into a quick WhatsApp alert
Put a useful company development in front of the right person while it is still actionable.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send message
Send a text message to a whatsapp number. note: the message will reflect on the recipient's phone number only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
A noteworthy signal can sit in a research workflow while a teammate waits for someone to notice it.
- Route a supplied signal to a relevant contact without composing a new message.
- Keep the alert focused on the company and why the signal matters.
- Use a text message when the recipient has initiated a WhatsApp conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Akta and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Company Signal Chat Alert.
- 3Tell Notis to summarize the company and signal from the webhook request, then send a brief WhatsApp alert to the specified contact.
- 4Pick a webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by sending one real signal payload and use a recipient who has texted first.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
An HTTP request starts the Notis webhook. Include the relevant company and signal details in the request so Notis has context for the alert.
Can it message a contact who has never contacted us?
The Send message action is delivered only if the recipient has texted first. Use an eligible approved template when the message needs to be sent outside the 24-hour window.
