Reply on WhatsApp Without Losing Context
When a key email arrives, Notis sends a WhatsApp reply that quotes the original so your response has full context and stays organized.
Trigger
New Gmail Message Received Trigger
Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
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
You reply to emails on WhatsApp but lose the context of what you're replying to. Conversation threads get messy.
- Keep conversation context
- Organized reply threads
- Clear message relationships
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and WhatsApp to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When I receive an important email, send a WhatsApp reply with the context included.'
- 3Use 'New Gmail Message Received' as your trigger.
- 4Send a test email and respond to it.
- 5Notis sends a WhatsApp reply that quotes the original email for reference.
Questions about this workflow
How much context is included in the WhatsApp reply?
Notis includes the key details from the email: sender, subject, body excerpt, and any relevant attachments.
Can I customize what gets quoted?
Yes. Tell Notis what matters most (sender, subject, specific paragraphs) and it will include only that.
Does the quote use WhatsApp's native reply feature?
Yes. It uses WhatsApp's built-in reply-to-message format so everything is properly threaded.
