Why this helps

An alert can interrupt your work while you hunt through a second dashboard for the network device that may be involved.

  • Bring device inventory into an alert follow-up
  • Reduce manual searches across dashboards
  • Keep the alert context with the report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to retrieve the device list and summarize details relevant to the incoming alert.
  • 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and a report channel.
  • 4Test by sending a real alert and reviewing the inventory report.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow change device settings?

No. It retrieves the device inventory for review.

Can it identify an exact device from an alert?

Only when the alert contains details that can be matched to returned device data. Otherwise, the report should show the inventory and note that the match is unclear.

How does the alert start the workflow?

An external sender posts the Adafruit IO alert to the unique Notis webhook URL.
