Bring connected device feedback into Canny
A device issue should not disappear into a feed. Send the event to Notis and give your team a Canny post they can review.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Post
Creates a feature request or feedback post on a board.
Why this helps
Device feedback can be hard to follow up on when it lives in telemetry feeds, logs, and team conversations.
- Create a reviewable feedback post from a device or project event.
- Keep supplied device and feed context with the report.
- Reduce manual copying between IoT monitoring and product feedback.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Canny once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Device feedback to Canny.
- 3Tell Notis to turn each received device feedback report into a Canny post, preserving the supplied report details and device context.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and send matching events to its URL from your connected project or relay.
- 5Choose a run report destination, then test with one real feedback example.
Questions about this workflow
Does Adafruit IO provide a trigger event for this workflow?
No. Start it with a Notis webhook, and have your connected project or a relay send the relevant event to the webhook URL.
What does the webhook payload need to include?
Include the feedback text and the Canny board and user identifiers needed to create the post. Notis cannot infer identifiers that are not supplied or available.
Will this create a Canny post for every feed update?
Only send events that represent feedback worth reviewing. Configure your project or relay to send those events to the webhook.
