Answer a WhatsApp message with page context
Give Notis a message to answer and a page to check, then send a contextual reply in the conversation.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send reply
Send a reply to a specific message in a whatsapp conversation. this creates a contextual reply that shows which message you're responding to. note: the reply will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Switching from a chat to a browser and back can break focus and delay a useful response.
- Keep the answer attached to the message it addresses
- Check current page content before replying
- Reduce chat and browser switching
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Anchor browser and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for contextual replies.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis which supplied message and page to use, and to reply with a concise answer grounded in the page.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real message and verify the recipient has initiated the WhatsApp conversation.
