Notis

Get a readable inventory of active channels

Request an Ably channel list and turn the result into a quick inventory your team can review.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List Channels

List active channels in the application, with optional occupancy details.

Why this helps

Channel names and activity can be difficult to audit when the inventory is gathered infrequently.

  • Reduce effort spent scanning a channel listing.
  • Make an on-demand inventory easier to share and discuss.
  • Call out pagination and query scope in the recap.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ai ml api and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to build from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list channels within the intended scope and summarize the returned names or details, including relevant pagination limits.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real inventory request and inspect the results.
