Notis

Keep Bubble device status current with Adafruit IO

Reflect a device update in the existing Bubble record your team already uses to understand its status.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Patch Thing By ID

Update selected fields on a record by its unique ID.

Why this helps

Status records become unreliable when each device change depends on someone remembering to update the app.

  • Update selected fields on an existing record
  • Use a device webhook as the change context
  • Avoid replacing unrelated Bubble fields

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 find the existing Bubble record from the supplied identifier and patch its status from the incoming reading.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test using a real reading and an existing Bubble record.

Questions about this workflow

Does this action create a record if none exists?

No. Patch Thing By ID modifies a Thing by its unique ID. Confirm that the record exists and provide the identifier.

Will fields not mentioned in the update be replaced?

No. The patch action modifies selected fields, unlike a full replacement.
