Notis

Handle a Control D device settings request from an event signal

Keep device changes moving by giving Notis a clear request, target device, and intended settings.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Modify Device

Tool to modify an existing device. Use when you need to update device settings by providing its ID.

Why this helps

Device changes can linger when the request and device controls sit in different tools.

  • Start a device change from a webhook request.
  • Keep the target device and requested settings explicit.
  • Get a run report for the attempted update.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create one.
  • 3Describe the settings to change and identify the device in the request or instruction.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify the device identity and settings.
