Request Community Resilience Estimates by webhook

Connect an internal intake step to Census resilience data through a Notis webhook and a clearly scoped request.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Community Resilience Estimates

Tool to retrieve community resilience estimates for a specified year. use after selecting variables and geography to get cre data for analysis.

Why this helps

Community resilience analysis often starts with a request that gets copied between tools before useful data is available.

  • Launch a scoped CRE retrieval from an HTTP request.
  • Keep geography and variable choices explicit.
  • Give the requester a run report in the chosen destination.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the CRE retrieval outcome in one instruction.
  • 3Choose a webhook trigger in the automation setup.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request stating year, variables, and geography.

Does the action make the analysis decision?

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
