Check Bolt device online status

Tool to check whether a specified bolt device is online. use when you need to verify device connectivity before sending commands (e.g., control signals). example: 'check if device bolt1234567 is online.'

Why this helps

Device checks can mean switching apps and losing track of the original request.

  • See whether a device is online without opening another app.
  • Keep the check tied to the email that prompted it.
  • Get the run result in your chosen report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent mail and Bolt iot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to identify the Bolt device in a new email and check its online status.
  • 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real email that names a Bolt device.
