Follow up on Bitly links in WhatsApp
Make the next step explicit when you share or revisit a link, so it is easier to respond and move forward.
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
Link sharing often ends without a clear request, leaving the recipient unsure whether to review, approve, or reply.
- Pair the link with a specific requested next step.
- Keep follow-up copy short and actionable.
- Start the follow-up from a webhook request when it is ready.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitly and WhatsApp in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the link, follow-up context, and requested next step.

- 4Pick where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real recipient who has initiated a WhatsApp conversation.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow know whether someone clicked the link?
No click data or Bitly trigger is provided in this package. Supply any click or follow-up context yourself when starting the webhook.
Can the message go outside the WhatsApp 24-hour window?
The listed Send message action is limited to recipients who have texted first. For messages outside the 24-hour window, use an approved template.
