Turn an Adafruit IO device media link into a Cincopa upload

When a device workflow produces a media URL, send it to Notis and let Cincopa handle the upload.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Upload Asset From URL

Uploads an asset from an external URL and returns a status ID to track it.

Why this helps

Device media links can get buried among telemetry and require a manual trip to a separate media library.

  • Start an upload as soon as your backend sends a media URL.
  • Keep the upload status ID available for later status checks.
  • Reduce context switching between device data and media management.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Cincopa once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to upload the media URL included in each webhook request to Cincopa and retain the returned status ID.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real example webhook containing a reachable media URL and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Does Adafruit IO provide a trigger event for this workflow?

No. Adafruit IO exposes no trigger events here, so this workflow starts with a Notis webhook sent by your backend or another caller.

What should the webhook include?

Include the external media URL to upload. If you want to target a gallery or existing asset, provide those details when available and supported by your Cincopa connection.

Does this publish the media?

The listed action uploads an asset from a URL and returns a status ID. It does not describe a separate publishing action.
