Why this helps
Incident details sit in a database while teammates wait for an update in their live channel.
- Share important incident context in the channel your team is already watching.
- Reduce manual copy and paste during a fast-moving incident.
- Keep the broadcast focused on the record's relevant details.
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 find the specified incident record and publish a concise update to the named Ably channel.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real incident record and check the Ably message.
Questions about this workflow
Does AnyDB start this automation with an event?
No. AnyDB has no listed trigger events, so a Notis webhook starts this workflow when it receives an HTTP request.
Can Notis decide what to include?
Yes. Describe the details to summarize in your instruction. Notis can only use information available in the AnyDB record.
