Check channel presence while reviewing a website
Know who is currently present in the coordination channel when a website update needs attention.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Channel Presence
Get the members currently connected and active on a channel.
Why this helps
A website alert can arrive without telling you whether anyone is active in the channel where the team handles it.
- Retrieve current members present in a specified channel.
- Include website findings and channel presence in one report.
- Help you decide whether a follow-up may need another route.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AgentQL and Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to inspect the supplied website with AgentQL, check presence for the specified Ably channel, and summarize both for the operator.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real website and channel.
