Notis

Keep device dashboards fresh after an update

When a device update changes a published dashboard or file, send its URL to Notis and clear the stale CDN copy.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Purge URL

Clears a specific URL from the CDN cache so its content refreshes from the origin.

Why this helps

Updated device data or dashboard assets can leave users looking at a cached version while you switch between monitoring and CDN tools.

  • Refresh only the changed resource instead of clearing an entire pull zone.
  • Handle cache refreshes from a webhook sent by an Adafruit-connected system.
  • Keep device updates from creating a manual CDN follow-up task.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BunnyCDN in the Notis portal and connect any required Adafruit-connected service once.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to purge the BunnyCDN URL included in each incoming device dashboard or asset update request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and copy its endpoint into the system that sends the update request.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real updated URL.
