Know when traffic reaches a level you define, without repeatedly checking analytics.

Action

Send template message

Send a template message to a whatsapp number.

Why this helps

A sudden traffic change can be overlooked when monitoring depends on remembering to check a dashboard.

  • Check traffic on a routine schedule.
  • Use a threshold you provide instead of relying on an invented baseline.
  • Send an approved template when a message may arrive outside WhatsApp's 24-hour window.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Cloudflare API key and WhatsApp account once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and name it for the traffic condition you want to watch.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review Cloudflare traffic, compare it with the threshold you provide, and send your chosen approved template if it is reached.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real example and check that the template is approved and the recipient details are correct.

Questions about this workflow

Does Notis know what counts as unusual traffic?

Provide the threshold or comparison baseline in your instruction. The workflow should not assume a baseline that Cloudflare has not returned.

Why use a template message?

WhatsApp templates are required for marketing or utility messages and for messages sent outside the 24-hour conversation window. The template must be approved before use.
