Make User-Agent Event Data Readable

Send a user-agent string through a Notis webhook and get structured details that are easier to scan.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

User Agent Parser API

Tool to parse a user-agent string into device, os, browser, and bot details. use when you have a raw user-agent header and need structured client info.

Why this helps

Long user-agent strings add noise to an event and make basic client context harder to spot.

  • Extract device, operating system, and browser details.
  • Identify bot-related details when available.
  • Make raw request headers more useful for triage.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Big data cloud once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome: parse the user-agent string in each incoming request and report the structured client details.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and provide the endpoint details that will start it.
  • 5Choose where run reports go and test with one real request containing a user-agent header.

Questions about this workflow

What input does the parser need?

It needs the raw user-agent string from the incoming request or available event context.

Does it identify every bot?

It returns parsed device, operating system, browser, and bot details. Results depend on the provided user-agent string and the parser's available data.
