Notis

Give important IoT events their own Botpress conversation

Start a new Botpress thread when a device event arrives, with the required tags supplied for the integration you use.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

BOTPRESS_CREATE_CONVERSATION

Creates a new conversation thread; required tags depend on the integration.

Why this helps

When an IoT event needs its own follow-up thread, creating one by hand adds another step at the moment you need to respond.

  • Create a separate conversation for an event that needs follow-up
  • Keep event context available in the new thread
  • Reduce manual setup when a device event arrives

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.
  • 3In one instruction, describe when to create a conversation and what event context and required integration tags to include.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real event and valid tags for your Botpress integration.

Questions about this workflow

Are the conversation tags optional?

No. The Botpress action requires tags according to the specific integration being used.

Does Adafruit IO trigger the automation directly?

No trigger events are exposed for Adafruit IO here. An HTTP request starts this workflow through the Notis webhook.

What should the request include?

Include the event context and the tags required by your Botpress integration. Any other needed values must also be supplied by the request.
