Turn device alerts into incident briefs
Send an alert and its supporting readings to Notis so the important context arrives together in a Carbone document.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Generate Carbone Report
Generates a document in the chosen format from a template.
Why this helps
An alert without its sensor values and timestamps leaves people searching across tools to understand what happened.
- Gather alert details and supporting readings in one document.
- Preserve the context supplied by the monitoring system.
- Make incident handoffs easier to review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Carbone once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for device incidents.
- 3Tell Notis to use each incoming incident payload to generate a brief with the chosen Carbone template.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real incident example to check that the brief includes the supplied details.
Questions about this workflow
Does Adafruit IO provide the incident trigger?
No. A monitoring service or custom backend must send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook.
Can Notis decide whether a reading crossed a threshold?
Only if the threshold and relevant readings are supplied or the payload already identifies the incident. The workflow should not assume a threshold that was not provided.
