Share a Beeminder milestone when it matters
Start a review by webhook, then have Notis send a concise update about the goal or datapoint you specify.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send Email
Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.
Why this helps
Progress worth sharing can pass without a timely update when you have to assemble the details yourself.
- Turn a webhook into a timely progress update
- Summarize Beeminder data in plain language
- Send the update to a recipient you specify
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beeminder and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis what milestone or progress to check, who should receive the email, and how to describe it.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real HTTP request and confirm the milestone and recipient before using it routinely.
Questions about this workflow
Can it confirm that a milestone was reached?
Ask Notis to check the relevant goal or datapoint information Beeminder returns. State the milestone criteria in your instruction if they are not available in that data.
Does it send the email immediately?
The Gmail send action sends the message when the automation runs. Test the criteria and recipient first.
