Add New WhatsApp Context to Existing Leads

When an existing prospect sends a new message, keep the latest need near the lead record so your next follow-up starts with context.

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

Update Lead

Updates an existing lead entity record in dynamics crm using the web api.

Why this helps

Useful details from later WhatsApp conversations can remain scattered across chat threads instead of the sales record.

  • Add new customer needs to a matching lead.
  • Make follow-up easier with a fresh conversation summary.
  • Keep relevant chat context attached to sales work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Dynamics 365 once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to update a lead only when the sender clearly matches an existing record and summarize the new inquiry.
  • 4Pick the New Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real message from a sender who has a matching lead.

Questions about this workflow

How should the workflow handle an uncertain match?

Ask Notis to flag the message for review when it cannot confidently identify the existing lead.

Does this create a new lead?

This workflow is for updating a matching existing lead. Use a separate automation if you want to create leads for new inquiries.

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
