Put device diagnostics beside the feedback
When telemetry helps explain a report, send the relevant context to the Canny discussion where your team is already working.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Comment
Posts a new comment on a post.
Why this helps
Teams lose time switching between feedback and device data to understand whether an issue is recurring or explainable.
- Keep supporting telemetry near the related feedback discussion.
- Give product and support teams context without repeated feed lookups.
- Make it easier to spot relevant readings while reviewing a report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Canny once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Device diagnostics in Canny.
- 3Tell Notis to add the supplied diagnostic summary as a comment on the specified Canny post.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and send relevant diagnostic events to its URL from your connected project or relay.
- 5Choose a run report destination, then test with one real event that includes a post ID, author ID, and diagnostic summary.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis find the matching Canny post automatically?
This workflow uses the post ID supplied with the webhook event. If your event does not include it, the association must be supplied or resolved before the comment can be created.
Which diagnostics should I send?
Send only readings and context that help explain the feedback, such as the relevant feed values, time, or device identifier.
Does this workflow query Adafruit IO on its own?
The webhook must carry the diagnostic summary or be sent by a connected relay that prepares it. A Notis webhook is started by an HTTP request.
