Why this helps
Template review updates can prompt follow-up work, but ownership details may be buried in a separate system.
- Bring ownership details into the follow-up
- Reduce manual user record searches
- Keep status changes connected to next steps
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and D2lbrightspace once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one.
- 3Describe how a template status change should use a supplied Brightspace user identifier to retrieve the owner record and summarize follow-up context.
- 4Pick the Message Template Status Update trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real status event and a valid user identifier.
Questions about this workflow
Does Brightspace contain WhatsApp template ownership?
This workflow only retrieves a Brightspace user by ID. The user identifier and the relationship to template ownership must be supplied by your process.
Can it update the template status?
No. The trigger reports a template review status change; the Brightspace action retrieves a user record.

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
