Why this helps
It is easy to lose track of product updates that could affect connected device operations when they are scattered across a feed.
- See how many existing posts match your stated topics and filters.
- Add a lightweight changelog check to a regular device operations review.
- Receive the count in a run report without manually scanning the feed.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis which device operations topics to count in Beamer and how to summarize the result.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
- 5Run it once against the real Beamer account and review the count.
Questions about this workflow
Does this count Adafruit IO feeds?
No. The selected action counts Beamer posts. Include the device operations topics you want Notis to use when describing the request.
Can it report a trend over time?
The action counts matching posts. A trend or baseline is not provided by that action, so it must come from user supplied history or other available context.
