See who is active before you launch
Before sharing an Abyssale campaign asset, request a current presence check for the Ably channel and get a concise view of who is there.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Channel Presence
Get the members currently connected and active on a channel.
Why this helps
A launch message can land in a quiet channel, leaving the team unsure whether anyone saw it.
- Check current channel members on demand.
- Get a concise summary of the returned presence data.
- Avoid assuming that a channel is actively monitored.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abyssale and Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to check current presence for the specified Ably channel and summarize the result before launch.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real channel and an HTTP request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this show who has seen the creative?
No. The action returns members currently present on the specified Ably channel; it does not establish whether they saw a particular asset.
How does the workflow start?
An HTTP request starts the Notis webhook. Include the channel information needed for the presence query.
