Notis

Send a Bolt serial instruction from a webhook

Route approved serial instructions into the device without manual copying.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

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.

Why this helps

Copying commands between systems creates delays and avoidable input mistakes.

  • Reduce command transcription errors
  • Make serial control callable
  • Keep execution visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolt iot in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for the serial instruction.
  • 3Tell Notis to send the specified ASCII data to the named Bolt device over UART.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one approved request.

Questions about this workflow

What format should the instruction use?

Specify the ASCII data to send and the Bolt device in plain language.

What device setup is needed?

UART must already be initialized with serialbegin.
