Send a useful research brief to WhatsApp
Request the details you need and have Notis deliver a short brief in WhatsApp.
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
Small research requests often get lost between a lookup, notes, and follow-up messages.
- Bundle a requested lookup into one readable message.
- Keep research requests tied to their intended recipient.
- Reduce manual copying between a lookup and WhatsApp.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect API Ninjas and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation in Automations.
- 3Describe the specific API Ninjas lookup, the details to summarize, and the requested WhatsApp recipient in one instruction.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and report channel.
- 5Test with a real lookup supported by API Ninjas and a recipient who has messaged your business.
Questions about this workflow
Can this fetch any kind of data?
It can only fetch information available through API Ninjas and the connected access. Name the specific lookup you want in the instruction.
Can the automation fill in missing details?
Notis can summarize returned data, but it cannot reliably supply information the API Ninjas lookup does not return.
