Get Bonsai cluster details when an Ably event calls for them
When an Ably-driven HTTP request reaches Notis, look up the named Bonsai cluster and return a focused configuration and status summary.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Bonsai Cluster Details
Tool to retrieve details for a single bonsai cluster by slug. use when you need to inspect a cluster's configuration and status.
Why this helps
Finding the right cluster details in the middle of an event response can slow down a decision and scatter context across tools.
- Retrieve one cluster's configuration and status on demand.
- Keep event response and infrastructure context together in a report.
- Avoid manually navigating to the cluster lookup each time.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Bonsai once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3Give Notis one instruction: when this webhook arrives, retrieve details for the specified Bonsai cluster slug and summarize its configuration and status.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request containing a valid cluster slug and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
What does the cluster lookup need?
It retrieves a single Bonsai cluster by slug, so the request or instruction needs to identify the cluster slug.
Does the webhook trigger come directly from an Ably event id?
No. Ably has no exposed trigger events here. A Notis webhook starts the workflow from an HTTP request.
