Turn WhatsApp inquiries into Databox lead records
Keep new customer inquiries visible. Notis can summarize each inbound WhatsApp message and push the details you want to track into Databox.
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
Push Data to Dataset (V1)
Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.
Why this helps
Promising inquiries get buried in busy WhatsApp conversations, making it easy to miss follow-up.
- Keep incoming inquiries in a business reporting dataset.
- Review lead volume alongside other Databox reporting.
- Reduce manual copying from chat into tracking tools.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and Databox once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis what inquiry details to summarize and push to your existing Databox dataset.
- 4Pick New Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real inquiry and confirm the record appears in Databox.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Databox dataset for me?
This workflow pushes records to an existing dataset. Create a data source and dataset in Databox first if you do not already have one.
Can I choose which inquiry details are recorded?
Yes. Describe the details you want Notis to extract in the automation instruction. The dataset must support the records you ask it to push.

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
