Webhook-Triggered Media Uploads

Media should flow automatically between your tools and WhatsApp. When an external system sends a webhook with media, Notis uploads it to WhatsApp servers instantly--ready for messaging campaigns.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Upload media

Upload media files (images, videos, audio, documents, stickers) to whatsapp servers. the uploaded media gets a media id that can be used in send media or other messaging actions. supported formats: - images: jpeg, png (max 5mb) - videos: mp4, 3gpp (max 16mb) - audio: aac, m4a, amr, mp3, ogg (max 16mb) - documents: pdf, doc, docx, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx (max 100mb) - stickers: webp (max 500kb, 512x512 pixels)

Why this helps

You generate media in one tool, download it, manually upload to WhatsApp, then reference the media ID. This breaks automation and creates bottlenecks.

  • Automate media uploads from external sources
  • Eliminate manual file handling
  • Build media IDs for downstream messaging
  • Integrate media generation tools directly with WhatsApp

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp to Notis
  • 2Get your Notis webhook URL
  • 3Configure your external tool to POST the webhook with a media URL or file reference when media is ready
  • 4Create an automation: When you receive a webhook with a media file or URL, upload it to WhatsApp servers
  • 5Specify file type expectations: The webhook will contain a URL to an image file. Download and upload it to WhatsApp.
  • 6Test by sending a webhook with a valid media URL and check WhatsApp servers for the uploaded file

Questions about this workflow

What media formats are supported?

Images (JPEG, PNG, max 5MB), videos (MP4, 3GPP, max 16MB), audio (MP3, AAC, max 16MB), documents (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, max 100MB), stickers (WebP, max 500KB).

How long are uploaded media files stored?

Indefinitely, as long as you don't delete them. You can reference uploaded media IDs in future messaging automations.

Can I upload media from a file attachment in the webhook?

Yes. If your webhook includes a binary file attachment, Notis can upload it. Describe this in your prompt: The webhook includes a file attachment. Upload it to WhatsApp servers.

What if the media upload fails?

Check the automation logs for the specific error (usually file size or format issues). Fix the media and retry the webhook.
