Turn Ably collection requests into Detrack jobs
When an Ably event requests a collection, let Notis create the Detrack job from the details provided and report what happened.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add Collection
Tool to add a new collection in detrack. use after gathering all necessary collection details.
Why this helps
Collection requests can get buried in event streams, leaving someone to re-enter the details by hand.
- Reduce retyping between Ably and Detrack.
- Keep a run report with the result of each collection request.
- Surface requests that lack details needed to create the collection.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Detrack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe that a collection request in the incoming event should create a Detrack collection using the provided details.
- 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Ably request that includes the collection details.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Use an Ably event flow that sends the collection request to that webhook.
What if the event is missing collection details?
Notis can report that the request is incomplete. The collection action should only run after the necessary details are available.
