Monday.com Whatsapp Automation
Automatically notify your team when a task is assigned and send friendly deadline reminders via WhatsApp. Keep projects moving and improve completion rates effortlessly.
Why This Workflow Matters
This workflow keeps everyone aligned and informed the moment a task is assigned in Monday.com. Instead of relying on email or manual updates, team members receive clear WhatsApp notifications and follow-up reminders.
The result is smoother collaboration, fewer missed tasks, and higher completion rates without any extra effort from your team. Everything runs in the background, so your staff can focus on doing the work, not chasing updates.
How The Automation Works
- Trigger: Task assigned
When a new task is assigned in Monday.com, this automation is activated automatically.
- ActiveCampaign Actions: Tag `task_assigned`, webhook
ActiveCampaign tags the contact with `task_assigned` and uses a webhook to connect the event to the D7 WhatsApp API. This ensures the right person is tracked and notified consistently.
- WhatsApp Message Sent:
The assignee receives a WhatsApp notification:
“A new task was assigned: {{task_name}}.”
This gives them instant visibility on what they need to work on.
- Follow-Up Steps: Deadline reminder
Before the deadline, an automatic WhatsApp reminder is sent so the task doesn’t slip through the cracks.
- Goal / KPI: Completion rate
The main objective of this workflow is to increase task completion rates by improving awareness and timely follow-up.
