Notis

Make device readings easier to find in Backendless

Give incoming readings a consistent home so you can review patterns when needed.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

General Object Retrieval

Retrieve objects from a table.

Why this helps

When readings live only in a stream, answering a simple historical question takes extra digging.

  • Preserve reading details available in webhook payloads.
  • Review records with Backendless table retrieval.
  • Make later troubleshooting easier to start.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe how incoming readings should be recorded in your Backendless table and what details matter.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and send reading payloads to its HTTP endpoint.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real reading.
