Why this helps
Small changes across several feeds are easy to overlook when each chart needs a separate review.
- Bring a week's feed review into one message.
- Summarize only changes supported by available readings.
- Preserve units and identify missing comparison context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Telegram to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create a new automation in Notis and name it for the weekly trend brief.
- 3In one instruction, specify which feeds and period to review and how to summarize observable changes.
- 4Choose a weekly schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real feed review and confirm the history covers the chosen period.
Questions about this workflow
Can the brief compare this week with last week?
Only if readings for both periods are available to Notis. State the comparison period in your instruction.
Will it explain why a reading changed?
It can describe observed changes, but causal explanations need supporting context you provide.
