Remove a retired device from Bubble
When a device is formally retired, pass its record ID through a webhook to remove the corresponding Bubble Thing.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Delete Thing By ID
Delete a record by its unique ID.
Why this helps
Retired device records can clutter app workflows when cleanup requests are left for someone to handle later.
- Act on a specific record ID
- Route an explicit retirement request into Bubble
- Reduce manual cleanup of retired device records
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Bubble once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to delete a Bubble Thing only when the webhook explicitly identifies a confirmed retirement and provides its ID.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report channel.
- 5Test with a designated test record and verify the deletion request is correct.
Questions about this workflow
Does a device reading by itself delete a record?
No. The instruction should require an explicit, confirmed retirement request and a specific Thing ID.
Can the deleted record be recovered by this workflow?
The delete action removes the identified Thing. Consider your own retention and recovery process before using it.
