Collect event responses with WhatsApp buttons after a Beaconstac scan
Make an event response easy: turn a scan notification into a focused WhatsApp choice for an eligible contact.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send interactive buttons
Send an interactive button message to a whatsapp number. button messages allow users to quickly respond by tapping up to 3 predefined buttons. perfect for yes/no questions, quick choices, or call-to-action scenarios. note: the message will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Following up with event leads one by one creates extra admin and makes it harder to see who needs attention.
- Offer up to three quick response choices
- Reduce back-and-forth for simple event questions
- Make responses easier to triage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beaconstac and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the event question and up to three response choices.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and have Beaconstac send the relevant scan notification to its URL.
- 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real event scan.
- 5Send the button message only to a recipient who has texted your business.
Questions about this workflow
Can a button message be sent to someone based only on a scan?
The supplied action details say button messages are delivered only if the recipient has texted first. A scan alone is not enough.
How many response buttons can I include?
The action supports up to three predefined buttons.
Does Beaconstac provide event RSVP details?
The source description does not specify RSVP or attendee data. The webhook needs to include relevant details or you must provide them.
