Check device connectivity at the moment you need it
Put a quick status check at the start of a device-dependent process, so you can plan around availability.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Starting a hardware task before confirming connectivity creates avoidable context switching and rework.
- Check availability when a task actually begins
- Reduce time spent debugging an offline device
- Give a custom workflow a clear readiness signal
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OpenAI and Bolt IoT to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal and add a plain-language instruction to check the specified Bolt device's status and report readiness.
- 3Select an incoming webhook trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
- 4Have your custom backend call the webhook before the task, then test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
What sends the webhook?
A custom backend or external tool you control can send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook.
Does this start a device action?
No. This workflow checks online status and reports the result before the task proceeds.
