Trigger
Account Created or Updated
Triggers when an Account is created or updated in Salesforce. Uses LastModifiedDate high-watermark to capture both creations and updates.
Action

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
Account updates can get buried, while the device availability relevant to your work remains in another app.
- Check device connectivity at account creation or update.
- Use a single run to review event and status.
- Reduce separate manual availability checks.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Salesforce and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, specify which Bolt device to check on account changes and how to summarize its status.
- 4Pick the Salesforce Account Created or Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real account update and review the run report.
