Create BTCPay payment requests from Adafruit IO device events

When a connected device signals that payment is due, have Notis turn the event into a BTCPay Server payment request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Payment Request

Creates a reusable payment request page for customers to pay an amount.

Why this helps

Device events can prompt a payment, but manually switching from IoT monitoring to payment setup adds delay and creates follow-up work.

  • Create a payment request from a relevant device event.
  • Keep the store and payment details in the instruction or incoming event.
  • Reduce manual handoffs between device monitoring and payment setup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and BTCPay Server in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a BTCPay payment request for qualifying device events, using the store ID and payment details provided in the event or instruction.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger, select where run reports go, and send one real example event to test the result.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this workflow?

A request to the Notis webhook starts it. Configure the source or an intermediary to send the relevant Adafruit IO event to that webhook.

What details are needed to create a request?

Provide a valid BTCPay Server store ID and the payment details required for the request in the event or automation instruction. The workflow cannot infer missing values.

Does Adafruit IO provide a native trigger here?

No. This workflow uses a Notis webhook, which can be called when an Adafruit IO event occurs.
