Get Submissions

Tool to retrieve all submissions for a specific form. use when you need to list entries after obtaining the form id.

Why this helps

Submission lookups can interrupt customer conversations and make it harder to return to the original task.

  • Retrieve submissions when a lookup is requested
  • Keep the form ID alongside the request
  • Review results in a Notis run report

  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Basin submissions for the form ID provided in an inbound WhatsApp request.

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
