Turn WhatsApp award requests into issued credentials

When someone requests recognition over WhatsApp, let Notis handle credential issuance once the required details are ready.

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, issue, and send credential

Tool to create, issue, and send a credential in a single request. use when group id and recipient details are ready.

Why this helps

Award requests arrive between other conversations, and manually transferring recipient details into a credential system can delay recognition.

  • Act on clear award requests without switching apps
  • Use the recipient and group details supplied in the conversation
  • Keep credential issuance and delivery together

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Certifier once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create, issue, and send a credential for clear award requests when recipient details and group ID are present; ask for missing details otherwise.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request that includes recipient details and a group ID.

Questions about this workflow

What details must the message include?

The recipient details and Certifier group ID must be ready for the create, issue, and send action. If something is missing, the instruction should have Notis flag it instead of guessing.

Does this send a WhatsApp reply?

No. This workflow uses the WhatsApp message as its trigger and creates, issues, and sends the credential through Certifier.

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
