Why this helps
A balance check can slip until alerts are needed, leaving you to discover a credit issue at the wrong time.
- See the current credit balance at a time you choose.
- Receive the result in a report channel before a planned alert period.
- Reduce last-minute account checks.

- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the current Dripcel credit balance and report it before your planned alert window.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and confirm the balance report is clear.
Questions about this workflow
Does the balance check top up the account?
No. It retrieves and reports the current credit balance only.
Can it predict how much credit future alerts will use?
No. The selected action returns the current balance. It does not estimate future message volume or cost.
Does the schedule depend on an Adafruit IO event?
No. A Notis recurring schedule starts this workflow because Adafruit IO has no listed trigger events.
