Keep delivery issues with the related Box file

When a WhatsApp message status changes, Notis can record a relevant delivery issue on the Box file identified by your process.

Trigger

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

Action

Create comment

Adds a comment by the user to a specific file, or as a reply to an other comment.

Why this helps

Delivery problems can disappear into message history, leaving no record alongside the work they affect.

  • Keep relevant delivery context beside a file
  • Make follow-up easier to spot
  • Reduce manual status checking

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Box once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis which status changes matter and how to identify the related Box file before adding a comment.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp Message Status Updated trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real status update and a related Box file.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger poll WhatsApp for status?

No. WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Updates arrive through real-time webhooks.

Will every status update create a comment?

Specify the status changes worth recording in your instruction. The workflow should comment only when the update is relevant and the related file is identifiable.
