Notis

Get a Backendless message when a device reading needs attention

Let a reading that matters reach the channel where your team can act on it.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Publish Message

Publish a message to a channel for its subscribers.

Why this helps

Important sensor changes can get buried among routine updates and go unnoticed.

  • Surface readings that meet your stated condition.
  • Send the alert to a Backendless messaging channel.
  • Keep routine readings from creating unnecessary notifications.

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.
  • 3In one instruction, state the reading condition, the message content, and the Backendless channel.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and send reading payloads to its HTTP endpoint.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real reading that meets the condition.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis invent the alert limit?

No. Include the threshold or condition you want checked in the instruction.

Will every reading publish a message?

The instruction can ask Notis to publish only when the incoming reading meets your stated condition.
