Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Google Locations
Find locations supported by the search service.
Why this helps
Similar place names make location research slow, especially when a deployment plan needs a consistent location reference.
- Retrieve Google location matches for a supplied name.
- See results ordered by reach to help prioritize review.
- Keep the location query attached to its originating project request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Autom once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Autom to retrieve Google locations matching the place name sent by the project and return them in reach order.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger, choose where run reports go, then test with one real location query sent by HTTP request.
