Follow up when WhatsApp message status changes
Turn real-time delivery status updates into an operational action in a connected app.
Trigger
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
Action
Execute Composio Tool
Execute a tool using the composio api.
Why this helps
A message status change can go unnoticed when follow-up depends on checking chat manually.
- React to a status update without repeatedly checking chat.
- Send status context to a connected Composio tool.
- Make follow-up easier to track.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Composio once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome you want from any channel.
- 3Describe the follow-up Composio should perform when a message status changes.
- 4Pick the WhatsApp Message Status Updated trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real status update.
Questions about this workflow
Can this trigger poll WhatsApp for status?
No. WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates arrive through real-time webhooks.
What can the Composio action do?
It can execute a relevant Composio tool, based on the status update and the task described in your prompt.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Whatsapp to Composio. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Whatsapp triggers
Composio actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Ask Oracle
Static helper that returns a comprehensive system prompt describing how to plan and execute tasks using the available composio tools and workflows. no inputs required; simply call to retrieve the prompt. always call this after the search tool is executed -- it will provide the best context on how to proceed, chain tools, and execute the task end-to-end. relevant tools referenced by the prompt: 1. composio search tools 2. composio multi execute tool 3. composio execute code 4. composio manage connections 5. composio bash tool
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Check active connection (deprecated)
Deprecated: use check active connections instead for bulk operations. check active connection status for a toolkit or specific connected account id. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on the toolkit.

Check multiple active connections
Check active connection status for multiple toolkits or specific connected account ids. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on toolkits.
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.
Create Plan
This is a workflow builder that ensures the LLM produces a complete, step-by-step plan for any use case. WHEN TO CALL: - Call this tool based on COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS output. If search tools response indicates create_plan should be called and the usecase is not easy, call it. - Use this tool after COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS or COMPOSIO_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS to generate an execution plan for the user's use case. - USE for medium or hard tasks — skip it for easy ones. - If the user switches to a new use case in the same chat and COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS again instructs you to call the planner, you MUST call this tool again for that new use case. Memory Integration: - You can choose to add the memory received from the search tool into the known_fields parameter of the plan function to enhance planning with discovered relationships and information. Outputs a complete plan with sections such as "workflow_steps", "complexity_assessment", "decision_matrix", "failure_handling" "output_format", and more as needed. If you skip this step for non-easy tasks, workflows will likely be incomplete, or fail during execution for complex tasks. Calling it guarantees reliable, accurate, and end-to-end workflows aligned with the available tools and connections.
Interactive Reply Received
Triggered when a customer taps a quick-reply button or selects an option from an interactive list message you sent.
Enable trigger
Enable a specific trigger for the authenticated user.
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.
Execute agent
Execute complex workflows using ai agent reasoning between multiple tool calls. use this for: complex multi-step workflows requiring reasoning, error handling and retry logic. use composio multi execute tool instead for: simple parallel operations, batch operations on similar data (e.g., fetch 5 emails, get 10 sent messages, retrieve multiple user profiles), independent tool calls that don't need each other's results, or bulk operations where all parameters are known upfront. performance: agent calls add ~2-3 seconds overhead. use for workflows >3 tools or requiring conditional logic. avoid for simple parameter passing.
Execute Composio Tool
Execute a tool using the composio api.
Get Tool Dependency Graph
Get the dependency graph for a given tool, showing related parent tools that might be useful. this action calls the composio labs dependency graph api to retrieve tools that are commonly used together with or before the specified tool. this helps discover related tools and understand common workflows.
