Turn presence history into a short channel activity summary

Ask Notis for a concise summary of the presence history Ably returns, so recurring activity is easier to scan.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Query Batch Presence History

Retrieves presence history for members across multiple channels.

Why this helps

Raw presence records take attention to review, especially when all you need is a short activity summary.

  • Turn returned presence history into a concise summary.
  • Review activity across selected channels in one report.
  • Avoid repeatedly scanning raw history records.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Accredible certificates and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for a presence history summary.
  • 3Tell Notis which channels to query and how to summarize only patterns supported by the returned records.
  • 4Choose the schedule trigger and set the recurrence in Notis.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one run and check the summary against the returned records.

Questions about this workflow

Can it infer why someone was present?

No. Notis can summarize returned presence records, but those records do not by themselves establish why someone connected.

What channels are included?

The workflow needs specified channels. Provide the channel names as part of your instruction or other available context.
