Find a report template without searching by hand
Send a report need to Notis and have it search Carbone templates so you can identify a suitable document format.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List Templates
Retrieves templates stored in the workspace.
Why this helps
When template names and purposes are easy to forget, finding the right report format adds another context switch before the data can be shared.
- Search the available Carbone templates by name or query.
- Use returned template details to identify a candidate for a feed report.
- Avoid browsing template storage manually.
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 template lookup.
- 3Tell Notis to search Carbone templates using the report need in each incoming request and return likely matches.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Send a real report request and confirm the returned template candidates are useful.
Questions about this workflow
Will this workflow generate a report too?
No. It searches the Carbone template store and returns matching template information. Use a separate report-generation workflow after selecting a template.
Can it find templates by ID or name?
The List Templates action supports filtering and search, including by name or ID.
