Collect Bolt serial data on a schedule
Bring recurring device messages into the same report you already check.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Read
Tool to read incoming serial data from a bolt device. use when you've initialized uart with serialbegin and need to retrieve serial data.
Why this helps
Serial logs are often available only when someone remembers to inspect the device manually.
- Surface recurring device messages
- Reduce manual log checks
- Keep reports easy to scan
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 1Password and Bolt IoT in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Scheduled serial log read.
- 3Tell Notis to use the Bolt credentials, confirm the device is online, and read incoming serial data from the initialized UART.
- 4Pick a notis_cron schedule and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real device after serialbegin has been initialized.
Questions about this workflow
Does this initialize UART?
No. The device must already have UART initialized with serialbegin before Serial Read.
Can Notis summarize the data?
Yes. Ask it to summarize or highlight specific messages in the run report.

Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
Check Bolt device online status
Tool to check whether a specified bolt device is online. use when you need to verify device connectivity before sending commands (e.g., control signals). example: 'check if device bolt1234567 is online.'
