How to use Tag Added Webhook

Turn simple tags into powerful automation triggers

Your team is handling dozens — sometimes hundreds — of conversations every day.

To stay organized, you use tags like:

  • Hot Lead

  • Interested

  • Follow-up Required

  • VIP Customer

It works well for categorization.

But here’s the problem — tagging alone doesn’t take action.

A lead might be marked as “Hot Lead”… but no one follows up immediately. A VIP customer gets tagged… but doesn’t receive priority service.

Opportunities slip through.

The Tag Added Webhook solves this instantly.

The moment a tag is added to a customer or conversation, your system is notified — and can take action immediately.


What Is the Tag Added Webhook?

This webhook triggers whenever a tag is added to:

  • A customer profile

  • A conversation

In simple terms:

Tag added → webhook fires → action happens instantly

Instead of just labeling customers, you can now automate what happens next.


When Does This Webhook Trigger?

This webhook activates whenever a tag is added, regardless of how it was applied:

  • When a team member adds a tag manually

  • When a bot adds a tag automatically

  • When a workflow assigns a tag

No matter the source — the webhook will trigger every time.

Real-Life Business Use Case: Automatically Prioritizing and Routing High-Intent Leads

The Situation

A sales team handles hundreds of leads daily through WhatsApp.

Agents manually tag leads based on intent, such as:

  • Hot Lead

  • Interested

  • Not Interested

The Problem

  • Tagged leads were not acted upon instantly

  • Hot leads were not prioritized

  • Follow-ups were delayed

  • No structured lead routing

The Solution

The business connects the Tag Added webhook to their CRM and automation system.

Now, whenever a tag like “Hot Lead” is added:

  • The lead is instantly marked as high priority

  • Assigned to a senior sales agent

  • A follow-up task is created immediately

  • The lead is added to a high-intent campaign

The Result

  • Faster response to high-intent leads

  • Improved conversion rates

  • Better lead management

  • No missed opportunities


Summary

The Tag Added Webhook transforms simple tagging into real-time action.

Instead of just organizing conversations, you can now:

  • Automate workflows instantly

  • Prioritize the right customers

  • Improve response time

  • Scale your operations efficiently

Set it up once — and every tag starts working for you.
