Pause an eBay collection from WhatsApp
Stop a running or queued collection as soon as the team calls for a pause.
Trigger
New WhatsApp Message Received
Polling trigger that monitors for new messages received in TimelinesAI WhatsApp chats.
Action
Stop Collection
Tool to stop (pause) a single collection’s processing by ID. Use when you need to halt a running or queued collection after confirming the target collection ID.
Why this helps
A collection keeps consuming time or quota while the stop request remains trapped in chat.
- React quickly to stop requests
- Reduce wasted collection runs
- Keep an auditable chat-originated instruction
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Timelinesai and Countdown api once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named Pause eBay collection.
- 3Tell Notis to detect explicit pause requests, resolve the specified collection ID, and stop that collection.
- 4Pick the Timelinesai New WhatsApp Message Received trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real pause request.
Questions about this workflow
Can this stop every collection?
This workflow targets a specified collection; use a separate explicit operations workflow for account-wide stopping.
What if no collection ID is included?
Notis reports that it needs a precise collection reference before acting.
