Notis

Capture a Bolt device response alongside a support case

When a support case needs a device check, send the serial request and keep the response with the case context.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read

Sends serial data to a device and reads its reply.

Why this helps

Support troubleshooting slows down when case details and device responses live in separate places.

  • Send ASCII data over UART and capture an immediate response.
  • Keep the support context with the returned result.
  • Avoid switching tools to run a known diagnostic request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agile CRM and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to send the specified ASCII request to the specified Bolt device when the incoming support case calls for that diagnostic, then summarize the reply.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real support-case request after UART is initialized on the device.

Questions about this workflow

What does the serial write and read action do?

It sends serial data to a Bolt device and captures the response immediately. The listed action supports ASCII data over UART.

Does the action initialize UART?

No. UART must already be initialized with serialbegin before using this action.

What information should the webhook request include?

Include enough support-case context to identify the specified device and the intended diagnostic request. Do not send a command unless the case calls for it.
