Review Cal bookings after a WhatsApp template status change
A template status change can affect how you communicate about meetings. Bring relevant Cal booking context into your review before deciding what to update.
Trigger
Message Template Status Update
Triggered when the review status of a WhatsApp message template changes — for example approved, rejected, or flagged — on your WhatsApp Business Account.
Action
Fetch all bookings
Fetches a list of bookings, optionally filtered by status, attendee, date range, or by event/team ids (which must belong to/include the authenticated user respectively), with support for pagination and sorting.
Why this helps
Template review outcomes can be disconnected from the upcoming meetings and customer commitments they support.
- Review booking context when a template's status changes.
- Make communication decisions with related schedule information.
- Reduce separate searches during template follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Cal once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: when a WhatsApp template status changes, fetch relevant Cal bookings for review.
- 4Pick Message Template Status Update as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real template status update and assess whether the booking results are relevant.
Questions about this workflow
Does this approve or edit the WhatsApp template?
No. The workflow fetches Cal bookings only. Template management is not among the allowed Cal actions.
Will every template change have a relevant booking?
No. Use this for templates tied to meeting communication and provide context that can identify relevant bookings.

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
