Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send interactive buttons
Send an interactive button message to a whatsapp number. button messages allow users to quickly respond by tapping up to 3 predefined buttons. perfect for yes/no questions, quick choices, or call-to-action scenarios. note: the message will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.

Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow calculate available times?
Calendarhero can fetch availability, but the listed WhatsApp action sends button choices. The instruction or webhook request should provide the choices to offer.
Will the buttons work for a new WhatsApp contact?
The action delivers only if the recipient has texted your WhatsApp number first.
