Why this helps
Time-sensitive events can disappear in a busy feed before anyone checks whether they need action.
- Apply a consistent check to every received event.
- Surface only the results that meet your stated criteria.
- Keep the decision and query result in a run report.

- 3In one instruction, describe the event check, the ClickHouse query and the criteria that mean follow-up is needed.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real event and a known query result.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis invent a threshold for me?
No. Include the threshold or decision rule in your instruction, or point to a source of truth in ClickHouse.
Does the webhook trigger filter Ably events?
No trigger filters are configured. The webhook starts the automation when an HTTP request arrives, and your instruction describes how Notis should assess its payload.
