Capture the Right Website View From a Webhook
When a device workflow identifies a specific page and capture setup, send those details to Notis and get a screenshot without opening a browser.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Capture Website Screenshot (POST)
Captures an image of a website.
Why this helps
Repeating a custom capture by hand adds steps when you are already responding to a device event.
- Start a capture from an HTTP request sent to Notis.
- Use the Apiflash POST screenshot action when form data parameters are needed.
- Pass the page URL and parameter values from your own connected workflow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Apiflash once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the capture outcome.
- 3Tell Notis to use the supplied URL and POST form parameters to capture the requested page.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real webhook request containing a URL and supported parameters.
Questions about this workflow
Does Adafruit IO send screenshot parameters by itself?
The available source description does not specify those fields. Your webhook sender must supply the URL and any parameter values the capture needs.
When is the POST action useful?
Use it when the screenshot request needs form data parameters, as stated for Apiflash action 819.
