Review Countdown API collections from a WhatsApp reply
A quick reply can trigger a current collection list, so you can check what research is already organized without reopening the dashboard.
Trigger
Interactive Reply Received
Triggered when a customer taps a quick-reply button or selects an option from an interactive list message you sent.
Action
List Collections
Tool to list all collections for the authenticated account. Use when you need to retrieve paginated collections with filtering, sorting, and timing constraints.
Why this helps
Finding the right active or scheduled collection often requires remembering where it was created and switching back to the dashboard.
- Use an interactive reply as a clear signal to fetch collections.
- Review the returned collection list and available metadata in a run report.
- Cut down on manual dashboard checks.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for collection review.
- 3Tell Notis to list collections when the relevant interactive reply arrives and summarize the returned list.
- 4Pick the Interactive Reply Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by selecting the matching reply from an interactive WhatsApp message.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow create the interactive WhatsApp message?
No. It starts when an interactive reply is received; the event does not create the original message.
Can I filter collections by status?
The action supports filtering, sorting, and timing constraints, but the automation should use only criteria and parameters available in your connected action.

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
