Check Buildkite API access after a WhatsApp status change

A WhatsApp message status update can cue a quick check of Buildkite token validity and scopes, keeping access details in a run report for follow-up.

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

Get Current Access Token

Tool to retrieve the authenticated api access token details. use when you need to confirm the validity and scopes of the current api token.

Why this helps

When a message status changes during operational coordination, confirming API access can become another separate task to remember.

  • Retrieve authenticated Buildkite API token details after a status update.
  • Keep access validity and scope information in a Notis run report.
  • Make an access check easier to find during operational follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Buildkite once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter its name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve current Buildkite API token validity and scopes when a WhatsApp message status changes.
  • 4Pick Message Status Updated as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real WhatsApp status update delivered by webhook.

Questions about this workflow

Can this trigger poll WhatsApp for message status?

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

Does the workflow change Buildkite permissions?

No. The supported action retrieves current authenticated token details, including validity and scopes.

What happens if no WhatsApp status webhook arrives?

The trigger only runs when WhatsApp delivers a status update via webhook. It cannot independently check for updates.
