Why this helps
A meaningful channel subscription can be easy to overlook when updates live in YouTube and follow-up messages are handled elsewhere.
- Use an approved template for a structured update.
- Make a subscription event visible in an existing WhatsApp workflow.
- Reduce manual copying between YouTube and WhatsApp.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect YouTube and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any connected channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to send a specific approved template to an appropriate WhatsApp recipient when the subscription trigger fires.
- 4Choose New YouTube Channel Subscription as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real subscription event and verify the template and recipient.
Questions about this workflow
Does this automation create a WhatsApp template?
No. It sends a template message using an existing template. Templates must already be approved by WhatsApp before they can be used.
Who receives the message?
Name an appropriate recipient in your instruction. A new subscription event does not, by itself, establish that the subscriber has opted in to WhatsApp messages.
What if there is no approved template yet?
Create a template separately and wait for WhatsApp approval before using it. The action catalog includes Create message template, but approval is still required.
