Create Discord moderation rules from WhatsApp

Translate policy decisions into an active server safeguard.

Trigger

New WhatsApp Message Received

Polling trigger that monitors for new messages received in TimelinesAI WhatsApp chats.

Action

Create guild auto moderation rule

Creates a new auto moderation rule for a discord guild, requiring 'manage guild' permission; rule parameters are passed in the json request body (see request schema description for body content).

Why this helps

Moderation policy changes are agreed in chat but implemented much later.

  • Implement policy faster
  • Keep moderation consistent
  • Reduce manual configuration

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect TimelinesAI and Discordbot once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named WhatsApp moderation policy.
  • 3Tell Notis to extract the rule settings from each policy message and create the rule for the named guild.
  • 4Pick New WhatsApp Message Received as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one policy update.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis invent rule settings?
