Replace a Bubble device snapshot from incoming data
When a complete snapshot is the source of truth, replace the existing record in one deliberate update.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Replace Thing by ID
Replace all editable record fields, resetting omitted fields to their defaults.
Why this helps
Old device details can linger when a record should reflect a complete, newly supplied snapshot.
- Apply a complete device snapshot to a known record
- Reset omitted editable fields to their defaults
- Avoid piecemeal changes when a full overwrite is intended
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Bubble once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to replace the identified Bubble Thing using the complete snapshot in the webhook payload.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and a report channel.
- 5Test with a real record and verify the full overwrite is intended.
Questions about this workflow
What happens to omitted fields?
The replace action overwrites all editable fields and resets omitted fields to their defaults. Send a complete payload.
Can I use this when only one status field changed?
Use a patch for selected field updates. Replace is for a full overwrite.
