Keep scheduled Bolt sensor readings with your Box records
Set a recurring Notis schedule to check a Bolt sensor and report the reading for your operational records.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Why this helps
Regular readings are easy to postpone when they depend on remembering to open a device tool and record each value.
- Reduce the effort of routine sensor checks.
- Keep readings in a consistent run report.
- Use the report with your existing Box record keeping.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis which Bolt device and analog pin to check and how to summarize readings.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real device reading and confirm the report.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis save readings directly into Box?
This workflow reads the Bolt sensor and produces a Notis run report. Save or attach the report to Box as part of your record keeping.
What does the analog action return?
It reads an analog value from a specified pin, in the range 0 to 1023, after confirming the device is online.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
Collaboration Details Changed
Triggers when a collaboration's details change (e.g., role, status, expiration). This trigger monitors a specific collaboration and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as role, status, expiration date, access type, or acknowledgment status.
Check Bolt device online status
Tool to check whether a specified bolt device is online. use when you need to verify device connectivity before sending commands (e.g., control signals). example: 'check if device bolt1234567 is online.'
Comment Changed
Triggers when a comment's content or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box comment and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as message text edits, tagged message changes, or modification timestamp updates.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
New File Comment Added
Triggers when a new comment is added to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new comments are detected.
Bolt IoT Serial Read
Tool to read incoming serial data from a bolt device. use when you've initialized uart with serialbegin and need to retrieve serial data.
File Metadata Changed
Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.
Bolt IoT Serial Write
Tool to send serial data to a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart after initializing uart with serialbegin.
File Shared Link Changed
Triggers when a file's shared link settings change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file's shared link and fires when changes are detected in the shared link configuration, such as access level, permissions, password protection, expiration date, or vanity URL.
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
New File Version Uploaded
Triggers when a new file version is uploaded to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new versions are detected.
