Turn WhatsApp order requests into clear documents

Keep the order details a customer shares in one document ready for your review and 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

Generate documents from template

Tool to generate document(s) from a template by merging JSON data or uploading a data file. Use when you need to programmatically produce one or more documents and receive metadata including a download URL.

Why this helps

Order requests spread across messages are easy to misread or forget when other work takes over.

  • Bring shared order details into one place.
  • Make incomplete requests easier to spot.
  • Create a consistent document for review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Docugenerate once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an order request document from the new message using your template and mark any details the customer did not provide as missing.
  • 4Pick the WhatsApp New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real order request and check the output.

Questions about this workflow

Does this place or confirm an order?

No. It creates a document from the message. Review the request and handle order acceptance through your usual process.

What if the customer leaves out a required detail?

Ask Notis to label that detail as missing in the document so it can be followed up.

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
