Check historical presence across your specified support channels when Stripe reports a failed payment intent.

Trigger

Payment Intent Failed Trigger

Triggered when a payment intent fails in Stripe

Action

Query Batch Presence History

This tool enables querying presence history for multiple channels in a single api request. it uses the get endpoint at https://rest.ably.io/presence to retrieve the member presence history details of the specified channels in parallel.

Why this helps

Finding who was active across several support channels can slow down a payment issue review.

  • Retrieve presence history across multiple channels in parallel.
  • Help identify recent channel activity for triage.
  • Reduce repetitive checks across support channels.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Stripe and Ably once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation under Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction to query presence history for your specified channels and review window after a payment intent fails.
  • 4Select the Stripe Payment Intent Failed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real failure and channels that have presence history.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from a batch presence query?

This action retrieves presence history for multiple channels; a current presence query returns presence states.

Does it identify the cause of the payment failure?

No. It supplies channel presence history as context. The failure cause must be provided by Stripe data or other context.
