  • Creates an actionable checklist from criteria you define.
  • Includes available readings as context for each item.
  • Keeps routine inspections in a shared Drive location.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolt IoT and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Drive checklist for devices matching the maintenance criteria you provide, including the readings that support each item.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real sensor review and confirm each checklist item meets the stated criteria.

Questions about this workflow

Does Notis know when a device needs maintenance?

Only according to criteria you provide. The workflow uses available Bolt readings to assess those criteria.

Will the checklist be an empty file or contain items?

It creates a file with checklist content based on the matching devices and available readings.
