Put an Apify finding in the right WhatsApp conversation
Pass the relevant message context and finding to Notis, then keep the update attached to the conversation it belongs in.
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
Findings arrive without enough context, leaving teammates unsure which discussion they relate to.
- Tie the update to a specific message.
- Add a concise finding to an active conversation.
- Reduce ambiguity when several discussions are open.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apify and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to summarize the supplied finding and reply to the specified WhatsApp message in its conversation.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real message and finding; the recipient must have texted your WhatsApp number first.
