Turn a weather alert URL into a short link

When a weather alert needs to reach your people quickly, send its URL to Notis and get a Cutt.ly link without extra tool switching.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Shorten URL

Creates a short link that redirects to the original URL.

Why this helps

Long alert URLs are awkward to paste during an already time-sensitive moment.

  • Start the workflow with an HTTP request when an alert link is ready.
  • Reduce copy and paste steps during weather disruptions.
  • Make the shortened link available through the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AccuWeather and Cutt.ly once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for alert sharing.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction to shorten the alert URL supplied with the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select a destination for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real alert URL using an HTTP request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger fire when AccuWeather issues an alert?

No. AccuWeather trigger events are not available here. The workflow starts when an external service sends an HTTP request to the Notis webhook.

What must the request include?

It must provide the alert URL to shorten. The available event details do not specify an AccuWeather alert URL field or webhook payload format.

Does the action send the alert to people?

No. It creates a shortened link. Sharing or notification delivery is not included in the listed Cutt.ly actions.
