Notis

Apply approved settings to Backendless maps

Send a structured update request and keep shared workflow settings current.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Map Put

Tool to set or update key-value pairs in a hive map. use when you need to add or update multiple entries in a hive map.

Why this helps

Small settings changes can get lost between a request and the system that uses them.

  • Apply multiple settings from one request
  • Keep approved values in a shared Backendless map
  • Reduce manual updates to workflow configuration

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Backendless once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to update specified keys with approved values from the incoming request.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook trigger and connect the request sender to its endpoint.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real settings update.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the request include?

Include the map or hive context, keys, and values that Notis should update.

Will this validate whether a setting is safe?

Notis can follow validation rules you provide. Supply allowed keys, value formats, and approval requirements in the instruction.
