Clear confirmed retired device records
Route a deliberate retirement request to the AppDrag delete function that handles the specific device record.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Visual SQL Delete
Delete rows from a database table.
Why this helps
Retired device records can clutter operational views when cleanup requests are easy to lose.
- Turn a specific retirement request into a consistent cleanup action.
- Call an existing AppDrag Visual SQL Delete function.
- Keep stale device records from obscuring current operational work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and AppDrag once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to call the designated AppDrag Visual SQL Delete function only for a confirmed retired-device request with the required identifier.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one explicitly designated record and verify the intended result.
Questions about this workflow
Does this delete records automatically whenever a reading stops?
No. The workflow should require an explicit retirement request in the webhook payload. A missing reading alone does not prove that a device is retired.
What must be configured in AppDrag?
An existing Visual SQL Delete function must be configured for the intended table and record criteria.
