Get Video URL Details

Tool to get details for a specific video url. use when you have a public or embeddable video url and need its amara metadata (id, title, duration, thumbnails, etc.).

  • Keep link triage inside the team's existing WhatsApp workflow.
  • Give run reports a clear result to follow up on.

  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe in one instruction that incoming messages with a public or embeddable video URL should be checked with Amara and the returned details summarized.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real WhatsApp message containing a video URL.

Questions about this workflow

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
