Get Apilio device alerts in WhatsApp
When Apilio spots a device state worth acting on, get the key detail in WhatsApp without checking another dashboard.
Trigger

Action

- 3Tell Notis to send a short WhatsApp alert using the device or state details included in the incoming Apilio webhook.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Apilio event and confirm the recipient has messaged your WhatsApp number first.

What should the webhook include?
