Keep channel presence snapshots in Databox
Save the presence details you care about, so changes are easier to review over time.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Push Data to Dataset (V1)
Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.
Why this helps
A current presence view can be useful in the moment but hard to compare later without a record.
- Create a record of the snapshots your integration sends.
- Review supplied presence observations in one dataset.
- Reduce manual note-taking about channel activity.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Databox once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that records incoming presence snapshots in a Databox dataset.
- 3Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real presence payload and check the resulting Databox record.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis query Ably presence on its own?
No Ably trigger or query action is listed for this package. Send a presence snapshot to the Notis webhook from your Ably setup.
Does this create a presence history automatically?
It records the snapshots supplied to the webhook. History is available only from the time you start sending snapshots.
