Get urgent database alerts to the right device
Send a concise, actionable notification when an urgent record needs someone's attention.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Publish Push Notification
Send a push notification directly to specified devices.
Why this helps
Time-sensitive records can sit unnoticed while the right person is away from the database.
- Bring urgent record details to specified push recipients.
- Keep the notification focused on the next action and known context.
- Reduce delays caused by someone needing to check the database.
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 urgent record and send a concise Ably push notification to the specified recipient.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real, non-critical example and verify the recipient and message.
Questions about this workflow
What recipient information is needed?
The push action requires recipient details such as a device ID, client ID, or supported platform-specific token.
Can the workflow choose a recipient if the record does not identify one?
No. Supply the recipient in the record or instruction so Notis knows where to send the notification.
