Send a device command by webhook
Let your show control system send exact hardware instructions without manual typing.
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
Typing serial commands during a presentation creates avoidable errors and delays.
- Standardizes device commands
- Supports external show controllers
- Cuts typing during demos
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Slides and Bolt iot in Notis once.
- 2Create a webhook automation for the serial command.
- 3Tell Notis the Bolt device and exact ASCII text to send.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Send one real webhook and verify receipt.
