Check Whether Databox Received Device Data

After a device data push, use a webhook to ask Notis to check the Databox ingestion status and surface the result in your run report.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Dataset Ingestion Status

Checks the status of a Databox dataset ingestion.

Why this helps

A submitted data push does not by itself tell you whether Databox finished ingesting the records, leaving follow-up uncertain.

  • Make ingestion status checks part of a follow-up workflow.
  • See whether a specific Databox ingestion succeeded.
  • Keep the verification result in a Notis run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Databox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to check a Databox ingestion status using the dataset and ingestion IDs available to the run.
  • 3Choose the webhook trigger and send an HTTP request when those identifiers are ready.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real dataset ID and ingestion ID returned by a Databox push.

Questions about this workflow

Where do the dataset and ingestion IDs come from?

The dataset ID identifies the Databox dataset, and the ingestion ID is returned from the initial data push. Both must be available to the run.

Does this workflow push the records too?

No. It checks the status of a specific ingestion. A separate push action must first submit the records.
