Fetch Bolt serial diagnostics on demand
Make device diagnostics available to any approved HTTP workflow.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Debugging stalls when serial output is trapped in a separate tool and requires manual retrieval.
- Request diagnostics without dashboard access
- Keep raw context in the report
- Reduce interruptions during troubleshooting
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt iot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for serial diagnostics.
- 3Tell Notis to read incoming serial data from the specified Bolt device and summarize the result.
- 4Choose a Notis webhook as the trigger.
- 5Select a report channel and test after UART initialization.
Questions about this workflow
What must be initialized first?
The Bolt device UART must be initialized with serialbegin before reading.
Does the workflow alter device state?
No. It only reads incoming serial data.

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.
Transcription Complete Trigger
Triggers when a transcription is complete. Polls Fireflies API for transcripts created or updated since the last poll time. Handles rate limiting gracefully.
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.'

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.
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.
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.
