Get a Convolo AI response to an Adafruit IO reading
When a device reading needs interpretation, send its value and context to a Convolo AI character for a focused response.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Character Response
Generates a text or voice response from a character in an ongoing session.
Why this helps
Sensor readings can demand a decision, but switching between a device dashboard and an AI conversation adds friction and makes follow-up easier to miss.
- Turn a device update into a readable response in one step.
- Include the feed name, reading, units, and relevant thresholds in the webhook payload.
- Keep the character focused on the device context and requested response.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Convolo AI once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to pass the device reading and supplied context to the chosen Convolo AI character for a concise response.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and configure your device gateway to send the reading to its HTTP endpoint.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real device reading that includes the character input and any needed context.
Questions about this workflow
Does Adafruit IO provide a trigger event for this workflow?
No Adafruit IO trigger event is listed here. This workflow starts with a Notis webhook, which your device gateway or connected backend must call with the reading.
What should the webhook include?
Include the feed or device name, reading, units, timestamp if useful, and any context the character needs to interpret it. The Convolo AI character must already exist.
Will Notis send the character's response back to the device?
The listed Convolo AI action generates a response. No Adafruit IO write-back action is available in this workflow package.
