Send and capture a Bolt serial exchange from AnyDB
Keep the request, transmitted message, and immediate serial response together for easier follow-up.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Sends serial data to a device and reads its reply.
Why this helps
Sending a serial message and then separately retrieving its reply adds extra steps and risks losing context.
- Send ASCII data and capture the immediate reply in one action.
- Check device connectivity before the exchange.
- Make the response available alongside its initiating request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or Automations, New Automation in the portal.
- 3Tell Notis: for a request naming a Bolt device and ASCII message, check online, send the message over UART, capture its immediate response, and report both results.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real device and a message that is expected to return a known reply.
Questions about this workflow
Does this action work without UART setup?
UART must already be initialized before serial data can be sent.
Is the captured data a later reply?
The action sends serial data and reads the response immediately; it is not a later background read.
