Pair a Site Check with Current Channel Presence

See what changed on a watched site and whether the related channel is active in the same scheduled snapshot.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get Channel Presence

Get the members currently connected and active on a channel.

Why this helps

A site alert may need quick attention, but the team may not know whether anyone is active in the related channel.

  • Combine a scheduled site check with current channel presence.
  • Keep operational context in one report.
  • Make it easier to decide whether a separate handoff is needed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to run the site check, retrieve presence for the named Ably channel, and summarize both without inventing an alert baseline.
  • 4Choose the recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real site and channel.

Questions about this workflow

Does presence confirm someone has read the report?

No. Presence reports current channel members; it does not confirm that anyone saw a particular message.

Can the workflow compare the site with a previous run?

Only if the prior result or baseline is available to the automation. Supply that context if you want a comparison.
