Get a daily Slack digest of your WhatsApp activity

Instead of checking WhatsApp each morning, Notis automatically fetches yesterday's conversations and posts a clean summary to Slack.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Fetch conversation history

Fetches a chronological list of messages and events from a specified slack conversation, accessible by the authenticated user/bot, with options for pagination and time range filtering.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders need clear, consolidated information to start the day. Checking separate apps feels fragmented and creates decision fatigue before the day begins.

  • Start your day with clear visibility into customer inquiries
  • Avoid jumping between apps during your morning routine
  • Spot trends and patterns in customer communication without manual review

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp and Slack to Notis, then navigate to Automations.
  • 2Create a new automation with a cron trigger: 'Every morning at 9am, fetch WhatsApp conversations from the past 24 hours and post a summary to #daily-briefing'.
  • 3Specify how Notis should summarize (e.g., 'List each conversation by contact name, include unresolved items, flag any urgent requests').
  • 4Choose your preferred time (e.g., 9am your time) and the Slack channel for the digest.
  • 5On your first morning, check the #daily-briefing channel—you should see a clean summary of yesterday's WhatsApp activity.

Questions about this workflow

What counts as 'conversation' in the digest?

Notis groups messages by contact/thread. Each conversation shows the contact name, number of messages, and a summary of key topics or unresolved items.

Can I customize what gets included in the summary?

Yes. You can ask Notis to 'focus on new leads', 'ignore service updates', 'highlight messages marked urgent', or any other custom filter.

What time should I schedule this?

Best practice for neurodivergent founders: schedule it 30 minutes before you plan to start work, so the digest is fresh and you can action items immediately.

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
