Check BART service advisories from a new email

Have Notis check for BART disruptions when a new email mentions a trip, route, or station you care about.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Get Service Advisories

Tool to fetch current bart service advisories. use when you need up-to-date system-wide or station-level alerts before presenting or planning transit routes.

Why this helps

Transit updates can get buried in a busy inbox, leaving you to check service alerts manually before making plans.

  • Check current advisories after relevant new email arrives
  • Reduce manual context switching between email and transit updates
  • Receive a run report in your chosen channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent mail and Bart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name and report channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check BART service advisories when a new email includes a trip or station you specify.
  • 4Choose Agent mail's New Email Received trigger.
  • 5Test with one real email and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this automation?

A new email received in the connected Agent mail inbox starts it. The instruction should tell Notis which trip or station details are relevant.

Does it check live advisories?

Yes. It uses Bart's Get Service Advisories action to retrieve current service advisories.
