Enrich WhatsApp prospects with Apollo

When a prospect shares matching details in chat, Notis can ask Apollo for a fuller profile so you have more context before following up.

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

Enrich person with Apollo

Enriches and retrieves information for a person from apollo.io, requiring one of: `email`, `hashed email`, `id`, `linkedin url`, or (`first name` and `last name` with `organization name` or `domain`) for matching; `webhook url` must be provided if `reveal phone number` is true.

Why this helps

You may have a name from chat but lack the context to decide how to follow up.

  • Gather available Apollo profile details from a chat lead
  • Use supported identifiers to improve matching
  • Reduce manual prospect research

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Apollo once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that uses supported details from an inbound message to enrich a matching person in Apollo.
  • 3Pick New Message Received as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

What information does Apollo need to find a person?

Apollo requires one supported identifier, such as email, person id, LinkedIn URL, or first and last name with an organization name or domain.

Does enrichment guarantee a match?

No. Results depend on whether Apollo has a matching person and whether the message contains a supported identifier.

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
