Follow up when a Google Doc is filled in
Make completed document details easier to bring back into the conversation that needs them.
Trigger
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
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 filled-in document can be ready for review while the next person is still waiting for an update.
- Notice when a configured placeholder is no longer present.
- Use a contextual WhatsApp reply when the relevant message is identified.
- Prompt the next review step without another manual document check.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the follow-up you want in one plain-language instruction.
- 3Pick Document Placeholder Filled as the trigger and configure the document and placeholder pattern.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real document change and a replyable WhatsApp message.
Questions about this workflow
What counts as a placeholder being filled?
The trigger fires when the document's plain text changes so a configured placeholder token or pattern that was present is no longer found.
Can this message start a new WhatsApp conversation?
No. Send reply needs a specific message in an existing conversation, and delivery requires that the recipient has texted first.
Will it detect any edit to the document?
No. The trigger watches for the configured placeholder pattern to disappear.
