Check media details before reviewing a Botpress-related file

Confirm a file's type, size, and hash before deciding what to do with it.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get media info

Get metadata about uploaded media without generating a download url. this is useful for checking file size, type, and hash without downloading the file. use get media if you need the actual download url.

Why this helps

Opening unknown media just to learn what it is adds unnecessary steps during conversation triage.

  • Retrieve metadata without generating a download URL
  • Check file type, size, and hash
  • Use conversation context when deciding whether the media matters

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Botpress and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to review the supplied Botpress conversation context and retrieve metadata for the specified WhatsApp media ID.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real media ID and review the returned metadata.

Questions about this workflow

Does this download the media file?

No. It retrieves metadata without generating a download URL. Use the Get media action when you need a temporary download URL.

Can it find the media ID from Botpress automatically?

Provide the media ID in the request or instruction. This workflow does not assume Botpress exposes WhatsApp media identifiers.
