Give customer issues from WhatsApp a clear owner queue
Ask Notis to recognize messages describing a customer problem and create a ClickUp task that your team can review and resolve.
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 a task
Creates a new clickup task in a specific list, optionally as a subtask if a `parent` task id (which cannot be a subtask itself and must be in the same list) is provided.
Why this helps
Problems reported in chat can get mixed in with routine conversation and miss the team's attention.
- Separate problem reports from routine messages.
- Create a reviewable record for customer issues.
- Spend less time manually relaying reports to the team.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and ClickUp once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe that Notis should create a ClickUp task when an incoming message reports a problem needing investigation.
- 4Choose New Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real problem report and review the task.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide how severe an issue is?
You can ask Notis to summarize the apparent urgency, but any severity criteria or business rules need to be included in your instruction.
Does it resolve customer issues automatically?
This workflow creates a ClickUp task for team follow-up. It does not resolve the issue or send a reply.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Whatsapp to Clickup. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Whatsapp triggers
Clickup actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add dependency
Adds a 'waiting on' or 'blocking' dependency to a task, requiring either `depends on` (task becomes waiting on) or `dependency of` (task becomes blocking), but not both; `team id` is required if `custom task ids` is true.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add guest to folder
Adds a guest to a folder with specified permissions; requires a clickup enterprise plan.
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
Add guest to list
Shares a clickup list with an existing guest user, granting them specified permissions; requires the workspace to be on the clickup enterprise plan.
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.
Add guest to task
