Turn maintenance events into follow-up drafts
Capture the reported device and event details in a ready-to-review Gmail draft.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Maintenance follow-ups are easy to miss when device events arrive while you are focused elsewhere.
- Collect maintenance event details in one draft
- Keep review and sending under your control
- Make follow-up easier to resume later
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt IoT and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis which webhook events count as maintenance-related and what available details to include in a Gmail draft.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real maintenance event and review the draft.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis decide when maintenance is needed?
Specify the event or criteria that should count as maintenance-related. Notis cannot infer a maintenance need that is absent from the data and instruction.
Is the email sent automatically?
No. The Gmail action creates a draft for you to review.
