Find feeds that have gone quiet
Ask Notis to check for missing recent data and list the related Airtable device records for follow-up.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List records
Retrieves records from an airtable table, with options for filtering, sorting, pagination, and specifying returned fields.
Why this helps
A silent feed can go unnoticed until someone needs the data it should have provided.
- Bring quiet feeds into a follow-up list.
- Use a time window that fits your monitoring needs.
- Keep the review attached to existing Airtable records.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis which feeds and records to check, and what time window counts as no recent data.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Run it once with real feed histories to test the workflow.
Questions about this workflow
Does this restart or repair a feed?
No. It identifies records for review and does not change device settings.
What if the data source does not provide a last-reading time?
The instruction needs a timestamp or history value that Notis can use to apply the time window. If that is unavailable, the workflow cannot reliably identify quiet feeds.
