Turn WhatsApp intake requests into Byteforms forms
When someone asks to share details over WhatsApp, let Notis create a Byteforms form that makes the next step clear.
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 form
Tool to create a new form. use when you need to define and store a form structure.
Why this helps
Important requests arrive in chat, then form creation gets postponed while you switch tools and decide what information to ask for.
- Convert requests for structured information into a form creation task.
- Reduce the effort of drafting an intake form from scratch.
- Keep the form creation run report alongside the automation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Byteforms 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 Byteforms form when an inbound message clearly requests structured information, using only the details in that message.
- 4Pick the New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real WhatsApp message that asks to submit information.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create a form for every WhatsApp message?
Your instruction can tell Notis to create a form only when a message clearly asks to collect structured information. Test the instruction with a real example before relying on it.
Does this workflow send the form link back to the sender?
No. The available Byteforms action creates a form; it does not provide an action to send a WhatsApp reply or form link.

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
