Follow up on document comments in WhatsApp
Keep a comment that needs follow-up connected to the WhatsApp conversation where you coordinate work.
Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
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
Comments in shared documents can be separated from the conversation where decisions are made.
- Notice when a new comment is added to a supported Google document.
- Use a contextual reply action for a specific WhatsApp message.
- Keep follow-up requests visible in a familiar conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the comment follow-up you want in one plain-language instruction.
- 3Pick Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides) as the trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real comment and a WhatsApp message available to reply to.
Questions about this workflow
Which documents can trigger this workflow?
The trigger covers comments added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Does the trigger guarantee the commenter's full message text?
The description confirms a new comment event but does not specify exact fields. Test a real comment and name any needed details in your instruction.
Can Send reply start a new WhatsApp conversation?
No. It replies to a specific message in an existing conversation, and delivery requires the recipient to have texted first.
