See what each WhatsApp request needs next
Turn a stream of inbound messages into a short intent summary and a suggested next step.
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
Create Chat Completion
Tool to create a chat completion using DeepSeek models (deepseek-chat or deepseek-reasoner). Use when you need to generate AI responses to chat conversations. Supports streaming, tool/function calling, and various parameters to control generation behavior (temperature, max_tokens, etc.).
Why this helps
You may need to reread a message several times before deciding whether it needs a reply, research, or follow-up.
- Surface the core request in a short summary.
- Use categories and urgency criteria that you provide in the prompt.
- Make follow-up decisions with less rereading.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect WhatsApp and DeepSeek once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name and report channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to summarize each new message, classify it using categories you provide, and suggest a next step.
- 4Pick the WhatsApp New Message Received trigger.
- 5Test with one real example and review the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Can I define my own categories?
Yes. Include the categories and any urgency rules in your instruction. DeepSeek can only apply criteria you supply or that are present in the message.
Will it know the customer's history?
The trigger describes an inbound message. If you need history or other context, provide it in the instruction or through a supported source.

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
