Plan BART around the time you need to arrive

When a chat request includes a destination and arrival deadline, Notis can retrieve BART schedule information to support the plan.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get BART Schedule Arrive

Tool to retrieve schedule information based on a specified arrival time. use when planning trips arriving by a given time.

Why this helps

Working backward from an arrival deadline takes extra attention when the time and destination are already in a chat.

  • Plan around the time you need to arrive.
  • Keep the deadline and trip context together.
  • Avoid manually searching for arrival-based schedule information.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Bart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for arrival-time planning.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve BART schedule information using the request's arrival time and confirmed station codes.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request that includes an arrival deadline and confirmed station codes.

Questions about this workflow

Can this work if the station codes are missing?

The request should include confirmed station codes. If they are missing, supply them before relying on the schedule lookup.

Does this guarantee arrival by the requested time?

It retrieves schedule information based on the specified arrival time. Review the returned information before making travel decisions.
