Turn Ably events into a clear Bonsai space overview

When an Ably event signals that you need to check Bonsai availability, let Notis retrieve the current space list and report the useful options.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List Bonsai Spaces

Tool to retrieve a list of all available spaces. use when you need to see the server groups and geographic regions available to your account.

Why this helps

Checking infrastructure availability interrupts focused work and makes it easy to miss which server groups or regions are available.

  • Get a current list of Bonsai spaces when an external event arrives.
  • Reduce context switching between event monitoring and infrastructure checks.
  • Receive a readable report instead of manually scanning the inventory.

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, list available Bonsai spaces and summarize the server groups and regions.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Ably request and review the report.

Questions about this workflow

Does Ably provide a trigger event for this workflow?

No. Start it with a Notis webhook. An HTTP request starts the automation; Ably can send the request when your setup calls for it.

What does the Bonsai action return?

It lists available spaces so Notis can summarize the server groups and geographic regions available to your account.
