Action

  • Use dynamic screenshot parameters supported by the action.
  • Skip the manual browser capture step.

  • 1Connect Ably and Cloudlayer once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and name it for webpage capture.
  • 3Tell Notis to convert the URL in each webhook into a webpage image.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real URL.
