Notis

Check who is present for a task handoff

Get a quick view of current channel presence when a project handoff needs coordination.

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 handoff can stall while you try to figure out who is available in the coordination channel.

  • Check current members in a specific Ably channel.
  • Pair presence information with task context you supply.
  • Reduce follow-up just to determine who is currently connected.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agiled and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, or use Automations, New Automation in the portal.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve current presence for the relevant Ably channel and summarize it with the Agiled task handoff context you provide.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real channel and handoff, and confirm the presence result is clear.

Questions about this workflow

Does this show who is online right now?

The action retrieves the set of members currently present for the specified Ably channel when it runs.

Can it confirm that a person has seen a task?

No. Presence indicates channel membership, not whether someone has read or acknowledged a task.
