Review Databricks catalog details when WhatsApp templates change

Use a template approval or rejection as a cue for Notis to retrieve catalog details and summarize relevant readiness information.

Trigger

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.

Action

Get Catalog Details

Tool to retrieve details of a specific catalog in Unity Catalog. Use when you need to get information about a catalog including its metadata, owner, properties, and configuration. Requires metastore admin privileges, catalog ownership, or USE_CATALOG privilege.

Why this helps

A template review update can be a release dependency, but checking related data setup requires a separate manual lookup.

  • Surface catalog metadata when a template's review status changes.
  • Reduce manual checks during a messaging release.
  • Receive a concise report that can guide the next readiness decision.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Databricks once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which catalog to inspect and what readiness details to report.
  • 3Pick Message Template Status Update as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one real template status change.

Questions about this workflow

Does the template event identify which catalog to inspect?

Not necessarily. Specify the catalog in the automation instruction or provide the association in the available message context.

Will this approve or change the Databricks catalog?

No. The selected action only retrieves catalog details for reporting.

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
