Catch approval signals from Discord
When a monitored post gets the reaction you care about, Notis can bring the update to WhatsApp.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction (emoji) is added to a message in a monitored Discord channel.
Action
Send message
Send a text message to a whatsapp number. note: the message will reflect on the recipient's phone number only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Approval signals are easy to miss when they are buried among channel conversations.
- Use a familiar reaction as a lightweight signal.
- Keep approvals visible outside the server.
- Receive the relevant post for quick context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Discord and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe which reaction should count as approval and what to send.
- 3Pick the Message Reaction Added trigger for the monitored channel and choose a report destination.
- 4Test with one real reaction; the WhatsApp recipient must have texted first for a regular message.
