Send relevant media from a browser task
When a browser task surfaces a useful image, video, audio clip, or document, send its media URL in WhatsApp.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send media

Why this helps
Relevant media found during browsing can be difficult to pass along while keeping the task context intact.
- Share media alongside a browser task
- Keep handoffs in the WhatsApp conversation
- Use one instruction to find and share relevant material
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 the media handoff.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis what media to locate or extract with Anchor browser and to send the supplied media URL through WhatsApp.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real supported media URL and a recipient who has texted your WhatsApp number.
