Weekly Device Infrastructure Check
Every week, your devices are automatically verified online and ready. No manual status checks needed.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
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.'
Why this helps
Device health checked sporadically if at all. Offline devices discovered too late, cascading into failed automations and stress.
- Eliminates manual weekly device checks
- Catches offline devices before they cause failures
- Provides recurring confidence that infrastructure is healthy
- Reduces anxiety about system reliability
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt iot to Notis (one-time setup). Linear optional.
- 2Ask Notis: 'Every Monday at 10 AM, check if all my Bolt devices are online and report results' or create via Automations > New, choose Cron.
- 3Pick day and time (e.g., start-of-week, start-of-workday).
- 4Choose where results go: Slack channel, email, or Linear issue comment.
- 5Let it run once to see the format, then adjust timing if needed.
Questions about this workflow
Should I check daily or weekly?
Weekly is a good baseline (catches issues before Monday morning starts). Escalate to daily if your devices are critical to work.
What happens if a device is offline?
Notis reports it in the results (e.g., 'Device X offline'). You get immediately notified so you can power-cycle or troubleshoot.
Can I get alerts only if something is down?
Yes -- ask Notis to 'only notify me if a device is offline'. Otherwise you get a routine 'all good' report weekly.
What if I add a new device?
Tell Notis and it will include the new device in next week's check.
