Why this helps

An approval can go unnoticed, leaving a planned customer communication waiting longer than needed.

  • Make approvals visible in Agent mail.
  • Help the team notice when a template is ready for review.
  • Include available template status context.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Agent mail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to email template status updates when the template is approved.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp Message Template Status Update trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real approval update.

Questions about this workflow

Does the event indicate which template changed?

It is a template status update event. The email can include the details available in the event.

Will this submit or publish the template?

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
