Why this helps
During an incident, switching between weather sources and team channels can delay a clear update.
- Start an update when an HTTP request arrives.
- Combine supplied incident context with relevant weather information.
- Keep the team informed in its Ably channel.
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 use the webhook's incident context, check relevant AccuWeather conditions, and publish a concise update to your Ably channel.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example request and review the channel message.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
