Know which WhatsApp sender numbers are valid
Check a new sender's number as soon as their message arrives, so your team has reliable contact details to work with.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered in real time when your WhatsApp Business number receives an inbound message from a customer (text, media, location, or contact). Delivered via the Cloud API webhook.
Action
Phone Verification API

Why this helps
Copying numbers from chats into a verifier adds busywork and makes it easy to miss a typo or disconnected line.

- See formatted number and verification details
- Reduce manual number checking

Questions about this workflow

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
AU Address Autocomplete
Tool to perform interactive search of Australian addresses from the AddressFinder database. Use when you need to search for and autocomplete Australian addresses based on partial input.

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get AU Address Metadata
Tool to retrieve full metadata for an Australian address selected from the Address Autocomplete API. Use when you need complete address details including GPS coordinates and census data.
Message Status Updated
Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
