Notis

Send one processed update to several channels

Share a consistent update across the Ably channels named in the request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Batch Publish Messages

Publish batches of messages to multiple channels in parallel.

Why this helps

Repeating the same update across several channels creates extra work and risks inconsistent wording.

  • Reuse one processed message across several channels.
  • Reduce repeated publishing steps.
  • Keep channel destinations explicit in the request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to process the submitted update with Abstract and batch publish the result to the specified Ably channels.
  • 3Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 4Test with one real update and a small set of intended channels.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow choose channels based on hidden criteria?

The destination channels need to be named or otherwise supplied in the request or instruction. Notis does not provide field mapping or build trigger filters.

Does batch publishing guarantee delivery to every subscriber?

The action publishes messages to the specified channels. Subscriber receipt depends on the connected clients and their behavior.
