Reuse uploaded WhatsApp media in a shopper follow-up

When a request includes a WhatsApp media ID, send that existing asset alongside the relevant shopper follow-up.

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

Reusing an asset can take extra steps when the team has to locate it again for each customer conversation.

  • Reuse a media item already on WhatsApp servers
  • Pair the asset with the supplied shopper context
  • Skip safely when the request lacks a valid media ID

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bluebarry and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis your desired outcome from any channel.
  • 3Describe when to send the provided media ID with a shopper follow-up, and when to skip.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request containing a valid WhatsApp media ID.
