Look up current exchange rates from WhatsApp messages

Turn a clear rate question into a current CurrencyScoop lookup, ready to summarize.

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

Get Latest Exchange Rates

Tool to get real-time exchange rates for all supported currencies with a specified base currency. Use when you need current exchange rates for currency conversions or financial calculations.

Why this helps

A rate question can interrupt focused work while you search for a reliable current figure and compose an answer.

  • Reduce context switching for rate questions
  • Retrieve rates against the requested base currency
  • Surface incomplete requests for clarification

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and CurrencyScoop once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations and name it for current rate questions.
  • 3Tell Notis to recognize a requested base currency, retrieve latest rates, and summarize only the currencies asked about.
  • 4Choose New Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real message that clearly names a base currency and requested currencies.

Questions about this workflow

Does this return a conversion for a specific amount?

No. Get Latest Exchange Rates retrieves rates. Use Convert Currency when the workflow needs to convert a specific amount.

What if the base currency is missing?

Ask Notis to request clarification rather than assume a base currency.

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
