Inspect Baserow tables after a WhatsApp selection

Use an interactive reply as the signal to inspect a known Baserow database. Notis retrieves its table list and gives you a focused summary in the run report.

Trigger

Interactive Reply Received

Triggered when a customer taps a quick-reply button or selects an option from an interactive list message you sent.

Action

List Tables in Database

This tool lists all tables within a specified baserow database. it allows users to retrieve information about all tables in a database by using the get /api/database/{database id}/tables/ endpoint. the expected output is an array of table objects containing details such as id, name, order, database id, type, and first row header.

Why this helps

A selection in WhatsApp can be easy to lose track of when you still have to open Baserow and find the relevant database tables yourself.

  • Use an interactive reply to initiate a table inventory.
  • Get table names and returned metadata together in a Notis run report.
  • Avoid reopening Baserow just to inspect a database's table list.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Baserow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list tables in your specified Baserow database and summarize the returned table information in the run report.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp Interactive Reply Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real interactive reply.

Questions about this workflow

Does the interactive reply provide a database id automatically?

The listed event description does not guarantee that it does. Specify the Baserow database in your instruction, or provide the database identifier in the context available to Notis.

Can it change table contents?

No. The available action lists tables within a database. It does not create or update Baserow records.

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
