Bring device alerts into the right Botpress conversation

When an Adafruit IO event reaches your Notis webhook, send its useful details to a Botpress conversation that you identify in the request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

BOTPRESS_SEND_MESSAGE

Sends a message to a user in an existing conversation.

Why this helps

Important device alerts can get lost when you have to notice them in one system and manually update the relevant conversation in another.

  • Put a device alert in an existing Botpress conversation
  • Include the event details provided to the webhook
  • Avoid switching tools to relay an alert manually

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Botpress once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to summarize the alert and send it to the existing conversation identified by the request.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real alert and an existing Botpress conversation.

Questions about this workflow

Can the automation create the conversation if one does not exist?

This workflow uses the send-message action for an existing conversation. It does not create a conversation.

How does it know which conversation to update?

The webhook request must provide enough information to identify the existing Botpress conversation.

Will an Adafruit IO event start this automatically?

No Adafruit IO trigger events are available in this package. An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts the workflow.
