Bring the latest device readings into a field operations check
A field process can request current device readings through a Notis webhook, helping your team get the conditions context they need for a decision.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Devices
Tool to retrieve a list of user's ambient weather devices with their most recent data. use when you need to list your stations and view their latest readings.
Why this helps
Field operations often need a quick check while the person making the decision is away from their usual dashboard.
- Connect an existing HTTP process to a device check
- Make latest readings available through a Notis run report
- Reduce back and forth to find current conditions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ambient Weather once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to retrieve the latest device readings for the field operations request.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real HTTP request from the process that will call it.
Questions about this workflow
Does this send data directly to a field worker's phone?
The action retrieves device data and Notis sends run reports to the channel you choose. No direct SMS or mobile notification action is listed.
Can it pull readings from a worker's phone location?
No. It retrieves data from your connected Ambient Weather devices.

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
