Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Channel Details

Why this helps
It takes extra context switching to validate a contact and separately inspect whether its coordination channel is active.
- Check incoming address, email, or phone details.
- Retrieve channel status and occupancy metadata from Ably.
- Summarize both results in a single run report.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to validate the supplied contact data and retrieve details for the specified Ably channel.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and set a destination for run reports.
- 5Run one real request and check that the report gives enough context to act.
