Answer strategy questions in context
Keep a scorecard-informed follow-up attached to the message that prompted it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send reply
Send a reply to a specific message in a whatsapp conversation. this creates a contextual reply that shows which message you're responding to. note: the reply will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
A useful answer can get separated from the question and become hard to follow later.
- Keep the answer attached to its original message.
- Use available scorecard context when preparing the response.
- Reduce time spent reconnecting the question and answer.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BSC Designer and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the reply workflow.
- 3Tell Notis what scorecard context to consult and how to reply to the specified WhatsApp message.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real message and confirm the recipient has texted first.
