Trigger
New Device Added
Triggers when a new device is added.
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 new device can create uncertainty about where music will play, and the explanation often gets lost in follow-up.
- Provide a consistent next step
- Share device guidance without drafting each time
- Keep playback handoffs in one conversation
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Spotify and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, describe the playback context to send and identify the WhatsApp conversation and message to reply to.
- 4Pick New Device Added as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real new device event.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis tell which device was added?
Notis can use details returned by the event. Specify any device context you need that the event does not provide.
Can it reply to a particular WhatsApp message?
Yes. The Send reply action is contextual, so your instruction needs to identify the conversation and message to reply to.
Does the recipient need to have contacted us first?
Yes. The Send reply action requires that the recipient has texted your WhatsApp number.
