Action
Add Contact to List

Why this helps
Newsletter requests arrive in chat and can be easy to forget when you are switching between conversations and email tools.
- Capture an explicit newsletter request while it is fresh.
- Reduce manual copying between WhatsApp and Benchmark.
- Use only the Benchmark list you identify in the instruction.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Benchmark email once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to add a contact only when the person explicitly asks to join your newsletter and provides an email, using your specified Benchmark list.
- 4Pick New Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real opt-in message and confirm the contact appears in the intended list.
Questions about this workflow
Will every WhatsApp message become a contact?
No. Instruct Notis to add someone only when their message clearly requests the newsletter and includes an email address.
What if the email or list is missing?
Tell Notis to skip the add and report that the required email or specified list information is missing.

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
