Notis

Request a current BART elevator check

Check elevator availability when you're ready to travel to a meeting.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Elevator Status

Retrieves current elevator status across all stations.

Why this helps

A scheduled access check may no longer reflect current elevator availability at departure time.

  • Fetch current elevator status across BART stations on demand.
  • Compare station information with the trip context.
  • Check access information close to departure.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Bart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to fetch current BART elevator status and identify results relevant to the stations in the Affinity trip request.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test it with one real trip and send a webhook request.

Questions about this workflow

Does the action check just one station?

It retrieves current elevator status across all BART stations, which Notis can compare with your specified trip stations.

Does an Affinity event trigger the workflow?

No. The supplied Affinity context lists no event triggers, so use the Notis webhook.
