Questions about this workflow
What details should I include in the WhatsApp request?
Include the form name, timezone, and project association. Add any redirect, notification, or spam protection preferences that should be considered.
Will Notis create a form if my message is missing required details?
The form creation needs its name, timezone, and project association. Include these in the request so Notis has the details needed to create it.

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
