Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
A webhook request starts it. Appdrag has no listed trigger event, so the request must be sent to the Notis webhook.
Can this message reach someone who has never messaged the WhatsApp number?
The Send message action delivers only if the recipient has texted your WhatsApp number first.
