Why this helps
A maintenance plan can lose context when readings stay in a separate dashboard or alert stream.
- Connects a reading to the existing plan.
- Keeps a timestamp and supplied maintenance context beside the document.
- Makes the rationale easier to revisit during follow-up.
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.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction to comment on the Drive maintenance plan identified by the webhook request with its sensor value, timestamp, and supplied maintenance context.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request that includes a valid Drive file ID and review the comment.

How is the maintenance plan selected?
