Conceal sensitive values in device updates
When an update arrives at your Notis webhook, have Notis identify the sensitive text values you specify and send them to Anonyflow for anonymization.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Anonymize Value
Anonymize one or more text values to conceal sensitive information.
Why this helps
Copying a device update into another tool can expose identifiers or sensitive text that should not travel with the useful reading.
- Anonymize selected text before it is stored or transmitted.
- Keep the instruction focused on the sensitive values that matter.
- Avoid hand-editing each incoming update.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Anonyflow once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis which sensitive string values in the incoming update to anonymize with Anonyflow.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real update and review the anonymized values.
Questions about this workflow
Can this action anonymize a nested JSON object?
No. Anonymize Value supports a list of strings, not nested structures. Use Anonymize Packet when the input is structured data.
Can I choose which values to conceal?
Yes. Describe the values to identify in your automation instruction. The webhook request must include the update data.
Will this recover the original text later?
Anonymize Value only anonymizes. Recovery requires the matching deanonymization action and the appropriate Anonyflow access.
