Send a prepared resource without reuploading it
Reuse a resource already on WhatsApp's servers when a call outcome makes it relevant to share.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send media by
Send media using a media id from previously uploaded media. this is more efficient than sending media by url as the media is already on whatsapp servers. use upload media action first to get the media id. note: the media will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Repeatedly locating and uploading the same resource adds friction to a simple post-call follow-up.
- Reuses media already uploaded to WhatsApp
- Cuts repeat upload steps
- Links a relevant resource to the call outcome
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bland AI and WhatsApp once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to send the supplied WhatsApp media ID when the call payload indicates the resource is relevant.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real call outcome and a valid media ID; the recipient must have texted first.
