Check DPD connectivity when WhatsApp templates change

A template approval or rejection may prompt a wider operations check. Notis can ping DPD and place the connectivity result in your run report.

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

DPD: Ping API

Tool to ping the api to check its status. use when verifying api connectivity before further operations.

Why this helps

A change to a customer communication template can be easy to notice in one app while related operational checks get missed.

  • Make the DPD connectivity result visible alongside a template status event.
  • Add a simple operational check to a communication review.
  • Keep the result in the chosen Notis run report destination.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and DPD once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation with a name and prompt in Automations.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to ping the DPD API when a WhatsApp template status changes and summarize the result for operational review.
  • 4Choose the Message Template Status Update trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real template status event and confirm the API result appears in the report.

Questions about this workflow

Does the ping verify the WhatsApp template itself?

No. The trigger reports a WhatsApp template status change, while the DPD action checks DPD API connectivity.

Can this tell me why a template was rejected?

The trigger provides the template review status change. The listed DPD action does not retrieve the review reason, so include any reason in the event data or review it in WhatsApp.

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
