Notis

Check elevator availability before choosing a BART route

Get current elevator status across BART stations when access conditions matter to your trip.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Elevator Status

Retrieves current elevator status across all stations.

Why this helps

A route can become impractical if elevator availability changes and you do not know before traveling.

  • Retrieve current elevator status across stations.
  • Use live availability as one input to route guidance.
  • Make access checks part of a quick request workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis to Bart once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for elevator checks.
  • 3Tell Notis to return current elevator status and call out stations relevant to the trip in the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and review the station status details.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a complete accessible route?

No. It retrieves elevator status for accessibility planning or route guidance; it does not itself determine every accessibility requirement.

Is the status current?

The action fetches current elevator status when the automation runs.
