Check Bolt connectivity when Adafruit IO sends an alert

Get a quick connectivity check when an Adafruit IO alert needs your attention.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Check Bolt device online status

Checks whether a device is online.

Why this helps

An IoT alert can leave you switching between dashboards just to find out whether the device can receive a command.

  • Check device availability from the same alert that needs attention.
  • Reduce manual dashboard checks before troubleshooting.
  • Receive a run report with the connectivity result.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to check the Bolt device named in the incoming Adafruit IO alert and report whether it is online.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and configure Adafruit IO to send its alert request to it.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real alert that includes a Bolt device identifier.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this workflow?

An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Configure Adafruit IO or the service forwarding its alert to send the request.

What does it check?

It checks the online status of the Bolt device identified in the alert. The incoming request needs to identify the device.

Does this workflow control the device?

No. It checks connectivity and reports the result; it does not send a device command.
