Keep the right number on the right contact

If a known customer messages from a number missing in their CRM record, Notis can add it as a contact detail after matching the person.

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 Person Contact Detail

Tool to create a new contact detail for a specific person. use when adding a phone number after confirming the person's id.

Why this helps

A contact's WhatsApp number can be missing or out of date, making the next follow-up harder than it needs to be.

  • Keep customer contact details together
  • Reduce repeated phone lookups
  • Add a number only after identifying the person

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and CentralstationCRM once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the sender by phone, confirm the matching person, and add the number as a contact detail only if it is missing.
  • 4Pick the New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real message from a known contact whose number needs to be added.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow create a person first?

No. It is intended for a sender who can be matched to an existing person. Ask Notis to report when it cannot confirm a person.

What happens if the number is already stored?

The instruction can ask Notis to leave an existing contact detail unchanged and report that the number is already recorded.

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
