Check Algodocs folders from WhatsApp
Ask for the folder directory in WhatsApp and get the Algodocs hierarchy for a quick placement reference.
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
List folders
Tool to list folders. Use when you need to retrieve all folder IDs and their hierarchy. Must be called after obtaining an API key.
Why this helps
Folder names and IDs are easy to lose track of when document intake is happening across chats and tools.
- Find folder identifiers and hierarchy on request
- Give intake teammates a shared folder reference
- Reduce interruptions caused by looking up folder details manually
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Algodocs once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Algodocs folder directory when an incoming message asks for folders, then summarize the folder names, IDs, and hierarchy.
- 4Pick the New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real WhatsApp request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this move a document into a folder?
No. The available Algodocs action retrieves folder IDs and hierarchy. It does not move or upload documents.
Can the reply include the folder hierarchy?
Yes. Notis can summarize the hierarchy returned by Algodocs in the run report.

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
