Notis

Understand presence patterns across key channels

Review historical channel presence in one scheduled report, so recurring coordination gaps are easier to notice.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Query Batch Presence History

Retrieves presence history for members across multiple channels.

Why this helps

Looking back across several channels for availability patterns means repeating queries and piecing together separate results.

  • Retrieve presence history for several specified channels in parallel.
  • Summarize the time period and channels requested.
  • Reduce manual queries during recurring operations reviews.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably once in the Notis portal, and connect Addressfinder too if contact checks are part of your review.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis which Ably channels and time period to review, and ask it to summarize returned presence history.
  • 4Choose the recurring schedule and run report destination.
  • 5Test with one real review period and confirm the results support your intended check.

Questions about this workflow

Does this action return live presence?

No. Query Batch Presence History retrieves presence history. Use Query Batch Presence for current member presence.

Can it infer why a channel had no members?

No. It can summarize returned history, but reasons or a baseline must be supplied separately.
