Register IoT device locations in Datascope

When a new device installation includes a physical site, capture its location in Datascope as part of the setup handoff.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Location

Creates a location with geographic coordinates.

Why this helps

Device installation details and field location records often live in separate places, making it harder to keep a complete site list.

  • Create a Datascope location from an installation request.
  • Keep a location name and code alongside its coordinates.
  • Reduce repeated entry when a new monitored site is onboarded.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
  • 3Describe that a new installation request should create a Datascope location, and ensure the request provides a name, code, and geographic coordinates.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real installation request to test location creation.

Questions about this workflow

What should the webhook include?

The request needs the location details required by the Datascope create-location action, including geographic coordinates and name and code identifiers.

Will it create a Datascope form submission?

No. This workflow creates a location record. It does not submit a form or register a device feed.
