Check a reference page when a device alert arrives

When a device needs attention, kick off a prepared Agenty agent to gather information from a page you rely on.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Start Agent Job

Starts a new job with an existing agent.

Why this helps

A device alert often means opening more tabs to check vendor guidance or a service page before deciding what to do.

  • Start an existing Agenty agent from an incoming device alert.
  • Bring a chosen reference page check into the alert response.
  • Avoid remembering to launch a separate agent job.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Agenty once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Prepare an Agenty agent for the reference page or browser task you want it to perform.
  • 3Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe the outcome to Notis from any channel.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and tell Notis which existing agent to start when the event arrives.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test using one real alert webhook request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a new Agenty agent?

No. It starts an existing agent. Prepare the agent in Agenty before using this workflow.

What starts the automation?

A webhook request starts it. Adafruit IO has no native trigger event listed here, so an external request must deliver the alert to Notis.

Can it decide what the device alert means?

The workflow starts the configured agent. The request and agent must provide the information and instructions needed for any interpretation.
