Turn incoming webhooks into channel updates
Send an HTTP request to Notis and let it publish the relevant update to your Ably channel.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Publish Message to Channel
This tool will allow users to publish a message to a specified ably channel using a post request. it covers the essentials like channel name, message data, optional event name/type, and additional metadata for push notifications. it is an independent and fundamental operation within ably's real-time messaging platform.
Why this helps
Webhook events can arrive without a clear route to the real-time channel where your team works.
- Route an incoming HTTP request into an Ably channel.
- Make webhook updates visible in real time.
- Reduce the need to relay system events by hand.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis how to turn the incoming request into a concise message for the specified Ably channel.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test by sending one real example HTTP request.

Create Ably Channel
Creates a new channel or retrieves an existing channel in ably. this tool allows you to programmatically create and initialize channels for real-time messaging. since ably creates channels implicitly when first used, this action publishes an empty initialization message to create/activate the channel.
Checkout Session Completed Trigger
Triggered when a checkout session is completed in Stripe
Delete Channel Subscription
This tool allows you to unsubscribe devices or clients from push notifications for specific channels. the operation is asynchronous, so immediate requests after deletion may briefly still return the subscription.
Invoice Payment Succeeded Trigger
Triggered when an invoice payment is successful in Stripe
Get Channel Details
This tool retrieves metadata and details for a specific channel in ably. it returns a channeldetails object containing information about the channel's status, occupancy, and other metadata. the endpoint provides visibility into channel activity, including metrics such as connections, presence, publishers, and subscribers, and requires appropriate permissions.
Payment Intent Failed Trigger
Triggered when a payment intent fails in Stripe
Get Channel History
This tool retrieves the message history for a specified ably channel. it uses the get /channels/{channelid}/messages endpoint to return a paginated list of messages in chronological order, subject to parameters such as 'channelid', 'limit', 'direction', 'start', and 'end'. the tool is useful for auditing, recovering missed messages, analyzing channel activity, and debugging message flows. authentication is required via basic or token authentication.
Product Created Trigger
Triggered when a product is created in Stripe
Get Channel Presence History
This tool retrieves the history of presence messages for a specified channel in ably. it allows you to query presence events on a channel within a given time period.
Subscription Added Trigger

Get Ably Service Time
This tool retrieves the current server time from ably's service in milliseconds since the epoch. it is particularly useful for time synchronization and generating valid tokenrequest timestamps to prevent replay attacks. the endpoint supports multiple content types, handles http errors, network issues, and is a fundamental tool for ensuring accurate timing in ably applications.
