Get a currency conversion in WhatsApp
Ask for a conversion when you need it, then read the result 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
Looking up exchange rates and relaying them by hand adds friction to routine decisions.
- Put an on-demand currency lookup into a familiar channel.
- Carry the requested currencies and amount through one prompt.
- Avoid copying a result manually into a message.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect API Ninjas and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation in Automations.
- 3Tell Notis to use the amount and currencies in each webhook request to fetch the conversion with API Ninjas and send the result to the requested WhatsApp contact.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report channel.
- 5Test with a real conversion request and a WhatsApp recipient who has messaged your business.
Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow send messages outside the customer service window?
The Send message action is intended for recipients who have texted first. For messages outside the 24-hour window, use an approved template workflow and comply with WhatsApp rules.
