Why this helps
A weather briefing can be mistimed or overlooked when the team is not active in the channel.
- Check current channel presence as part of the briefing context.
- Combine activity context with relevant weather conditions.
- Publish a concise update when useful to the team.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AccuWeather and Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check presence for your Ably channel, review relevant weather, and publish a concise briefing when useful.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and check the resulting message and report.
Questions about this workflow
Does presence tell me whether everyone saw the update?
No. Presence reports current channel members; it does not confirm that a person read a message.
Can this workflow skip an empty channel?
Ask Notis in the instruction to publish only when the presence result meets your stated condition.
