Action

Get Account Balance

Why this helps

A low messaging balance can derail planned sends when nobody remembers to check account credits.

  • Makes email and SMS credit balances visible regularly.
  • Reduces surprise checks before planned communication.
  • Keeps account readiness in a routine report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the current email and SMS credit balance and summarize it.
  • 4Pick a weekly schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real run and confirm both balances are reported.

Questions about this workflow

Will it automatically buy more credits?

No. The listed action retrieves the account balance only.
