Check Beamer connectivity after product follow-up

When your follow-up depends on Beamer, confirm the API connection responds and make connection issues visible.

Trigger

Email Sent

Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.

Action

Ping API

Tool to ping the beamer api. use when verifying api key authentication before making further requests.

Why this helps

A product follow-up can stall if the Beamer connection is unavailable and nobody notices until they need update details.

  • Ping the Beamer API after a sent message.
  • Expose connection failures sooner in the run report.
  • Avoid assuming the integration is ready without a check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Beamer once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to ping Beamer and report whether the API responds after the sent email trigger.
  • 4Pick Email Sent as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real sent email and review the ping result.

Questions about this workflow

Does a successful ping confirm a post was published?

No. Ping API checks API responsiveness and authentication, not whether a specific post exists or was published.

Does this change anything in Beamer?

No. It checks connectivity and reports the result.
