How to Get WhatsApp Notifications with Adalo: Step-by-Step Guide

Are you looking for a way to stay updated and receive notifications directly on WhatsApp whenever important events occur in your Adalo app?
With WhatsAble.app, a powerful tool that integrates Make and Zapier, you can seamlessly connect any app to their WhatsApp bot and receive real-time notifications.

In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of setting up WhatsApp notifications for your Adalo app, ensuring that you never miss a crucial event or sale notification again.

Section 1: Setting Up Notifications

  • Step 1: Create a Collection for Notifications:
    To get started, create a collection within your Adalo app to manage the notifications. This collection will enable you to trigger specific notifications based on various events. For example, you might create a notification for when a user makes a purchase in your app.

  • Step 2: Define Notification Content:
    Within the notifications collection, specify the content for your notifications. In most cases, a simple text field will suffice. You may also choose to add additional fields, such as user email or language preferences, to track specific data or personalize the notifications further.

  • Step 3: Generate Notification Triggers:
    To automate the notification process, utilize Zapier or Make, two great platforms that connect various apps. Create a new Zap within Zapier, starting with Adalo as your trigger. Select the trigger as "when a new record is created" and connect your Adalo app to Zapier.

  • Step 4: Integrate with WhatsAble.app:
    Next, connect Zapier to WhatsAble.app, the tool that bridges your app with the WhatsApp bot. Within the Zap, choose WhatsAble.app as the subsequent action and select the event "send a message."
  • Step 5: Account Connection and API Key:
    Connect your WhatsAble.app account to Zapier, ensuring all necessary permissions and configurations are in place. Copy your API key from WhatsAble.app and paste it into Zapier to establish the connection successfully.
  • Step 6: Choose Phone Number and Notification Content:
    Determine the phone number on which you want to receive the WhatsApp notifications. Utilize the text fields from Adalo, such as the notification title and any relevant user information, to compose dynamic and engaging messages for your notifications.
  • Step 7: Test and Verify:
    Before deploying the notification system, thoroughly test the integration by triggering a notification. Verify that the notification has been sent to the correct phone number and review its contents. Resolve any issues that may arise during the test phase.
