Look up a Beaconchain validator from an Ably request
Send a validator lookup request through an Ably connected workflow and get the Beaconchain information summarized.
Trigger

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

Why this helps
A validator identifier in an Ably message is easy to lose when you have to open a separate service and look it up manually.
- Turn a validator lookup request into a focused Beaconchain check.
- Keep the requested identifier with the returned information.
- Avoid interrupting your current work to perform a manual lookup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Beaconchain once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe: When this webhook receives a validator lookup request, use its supplied validator identifier to retrieve Beaconchain information and summarize it.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request that includes a valid validator identifier.
