Turn Adafruit IO device alerts into reviewable email drafts
Get a clear, ready-to-review email draft when a device report needs your attention.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Draft
Create a draft and optionally schedule its automatic delivery.
Why this helps
Important device readings can get buried among dashboards and notifications, leaving follow-up to memory.
- Keep unusual readings and their context together in an email draft.
- Review wording before anything is sent.
- Reduce the need to monitor the Adafruit IO dashboard continuously.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Agent mail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Device alert email draft.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to assess each webhook report and draft an email with the reading, why it may need attention, and a suggested check.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Adafruit IO device report and review the draft.
Questions about this workflow
Does Adafruit IO start this automatically when a feed changes?
This workflow uses a Notis webhook. An HTTP request must start it, so arrange for your system to send a report to the webhook when you want the workflow to run.
Will the workflow send the email?
No. It creates an Agent mail draft for you to review.
