Why this helps
Switching from a team request to a separate device console adds steps and makes commands easier to miss.
- Issue a pin command from a team message
- Check that the device is online before sending the command
- Keep a record of the run in your selected report channel
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Discord and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis in plain language or using Automations, New Automation in the portal.
- 3Describe the permitted request, named device, digital pin, and whether the output should be high or low.
- 4Pick New Discord Message Trigger, choose where run reports go, and test with one authorized device command.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow choose any digital pin?
The instruction can use the pin specified in a request, but test with a real device and pin that your Bolt setup supports.
Why include an online check?
The check helps avoid sending a control command when the device is unavailable. Tell Notis to proceed with the write only if the device is online.
