Collect scheduled analog readings from Bolt
Have Notis collect a sensor reading from a specified Bolt pin on a schedule you choose.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Taking routine sensor readings by hand is easy to postpone when other founder tasks take priority.
- Check connectivity before each reading.
- Capture the analog value from a chosen pin.
- Review recurring runs in your selected report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 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 the device and analog pin to read after confirming the device is online.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and review the reported reading.
Questions about this workflow
Does the reading include a trend or baseline?
The action returns an analog value from 0 to 1023. Provide any baseline or comparison value you want Notis to use.
Can this start from an account update instead?
This workflow uses a recurring Notis schedule. Salesforce-triggered versions can use an available account event when an account change is the desired cue.
