Follow up on Beaconstac QR scans in WhatsApp
A QR scan can start the next step. Send a WhatsApp follow-up from a Beaconstac webhook without switching tools.
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
Scans can come and go without a clear follow-up, leaving founders to check activity and message people manually.
- Respond to scan activity with a prepared message
- Reduce manual checks across marketing tools
- Keep follow-up focused on contacts who can receive a business initiated message
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beaconstac and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named QR scan follow-up, then describe the follow-up message in one instruction.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and arrange for Beaconstac to send its scan notification to the Notis webhook.
- 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real scan example.
- 5Confirm the recipient has messaged your business before relying on a regular WhatsApp message.
Questions about this workflow
Does Beaconstac provide a trigger event for this workflow?
No Beaconstac trigger event is listed here. Use a Notis webhook, which starts when an HTTP request is sent to it.
Can the workflow send to any number that scans the QR code?
A scan notification may not identify a WhatsApp recipient or indicate that they have messaged your business. Supply the recipient details and use a regular message only when the recipient has initiated a conversation.
Can I use this for a message outside WhatsApp's 24-hour window?
Use an approved WhatsApp message template for messages that require a template, such as messages sent outside the 24-hour window.
