Create Bidsketch clients from WhatsApp inquiries

Keep promising conversations moving by turning a clear WhatsApp inquiry into a client record in Bidsketch.

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

Create Client

Tool to create a client. use when adding a new client record to bidsketch.

Why this helps

Prospect details can get buried in chat threads before anyone has time to add them to the proposal system.

  • Capture prospective client details while the conversation is fresh.
  • Reduce manual entry after an inbound inquiry.
  • Skip creating a record when the message lacks enough identifying details.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Bidsketch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Bidsketch client from an inbound message when it contains enough contact details, and to flag missing details in the run report.
  • 4Pick the New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real inquiry and review the created client.

Questions about this workflow

Will every WhatsApp message create a client?

Your instruction can ask Notis to create a record only when the message contains enough information to identify a prospective client.

Can this work with a message that only says hello?

The instruction can tell Notis to skip client creation when key identifying details are missing and explain that in the run report.

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
