Why this helps
Important announcements need to reach multiple channels, but manual reposting is easy to miss or vary.
- Send one selected announcement to multiple specified channels.
- Keep the message consistent across channels.
- Reduce repetitive posting during time-sensitive updates.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the specified announcement and channel list from AnyDB and batch publish the message to those Ably channels.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a small set of real channels and check the published messages.
