Include Bolt serial data in a scheduled credential review

Bring serial data and credential operations into one scheduled Notis run, with a report to keep the results together.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Bolt IoT Serial Read

Reads incoming serial data from a device.

Why this helps

Routine reviews can mean opening several tools and manually assembling the details you need.

  • Collect incoming serial data as part of a recurring review.
  • Keep the credential review and device output in one run report.
  • Reduce manual context switching during routine checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Accredible certificates and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the credential information relevant to your routine and retrieve serial data from the specified Bolt device.
  • 4Choose a notis_cron trigger and set where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real credential record and a Bolt device with UART initialized using serialbegin.

Questions about this workflow

Does the Bolt device need setup before a serial read?

Yes. The listed serial read action is for retrieving incoming serial data after UART has been initialized with serialbegin.

Will Notis know what the serial data means?

Not automatically. Describe the context you want Notis to use, and provide any protocol details needed to interpret the serial response.
