Bring Device Serial Data into Your Competitor Review
Pair a recurring competitor review with serial data your Bolt device is already sending, then receive both in one report.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Read
Reads incoming serial data from a device.
Why this helps
Competitor changes and device readings can require separate routines, making it harder to review them together.
- Combine two recurring checks in one run report.
- Review incoming device data alongside Ahrefs competitor findings.
- Avoid assuming what the serial payload means.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, specify the Ahrefs competitor data to review and ask Notis to read serial data from the prepared Bolt device.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real competitor review and confirm UART has been initialized on the device.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow initialize the device UART?
No. The serial read action is for retrieving data after UART has been initialized with serialbegin.
Will Notis interpret the serial payload automatically?
Not necessarily. Describe the payload format and meaning in your instruction if you want the data interpreted.
How does this start?
A recurring Notis schedule starts the run. Ahrefs has no trigger events listed for this source.
