Keep an eye on indices used for Adafruit IO telemetry
Get a recurring view of the indices available for connected-device data, without interrupting your work to inspect the cluster manually.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Indices
Lists available Elasticsearch indices.
Why this helps
It is easy to lose track of where device data is stored as Elasticsearch indices change over time.
- Review available indices from a recurring run report.
- Notice when expected telemetry indices are absent from the returned list.
- Reduce repeated manual checks of the cluster.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Elasticsearch 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 list the Elasticsearch indices used for Adafruit IO telemetry and summarize the results.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and confirm the relevant indices appear in Elasticsearch.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow verify that an index contains fresh telemetry?
List Indices returns available indices and can optionally filter by pattern or health status. It does not establish that telemetry is fresh; freshness requires indexed data and a suitable query.
Does this schedule read directly from Adafruit IO?
The action lists Elasticsearch indices. Adafruit IO is the source context for identifying which telemetry indices matter; telemetry must be present in Elasticsearch for the inventory to be useful.
