Send a defined serial command when your backend signals
Carry a known command through a clear automation prompt when a relevant backend event arrives.
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 a serial command by hand can interrupt a task and make routine device follow-up inconsistent.
- Reduce repetitive manual command entry
- Connect a backend event to a defined device instruction
- Keep the action and its report in one workflow
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OpenAI and Bolt IoT to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Confirm UART is initialized on the Bolt device.
- 3Create an automation with one prompt specifying the device and exact ASCII message to send.
- 4Select an incoming webhook trigger and run-report channel, then have your backend call it for one real test.
Questions about this workflow
What does this action send?
It sends an ASCII message to a Bolt device over UART.
What must be ready on the device?
UART must already be initialized before the serial write.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
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.'

Bolt IoT Serial Read
Tool to read incoming serial data from a bolt device. use when you've initialized uart with serialbegin and need to retrieve serial data.
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.
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
