Send failed charge context to Bolt over serial

Keep a device-side record of legacy charge failures by sending a concise message over UART.

Trigger

Charge Failed Trigger

Triggered when a direct charge fails in Stripe's legacy Charges API

Action

Bolt IoT Serial Write

Tool to send serial data to a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart after initializing uart with serialbegin.

Why this helps

A failed direct charge can be easy to lose among unrelated Stripe activity and operational logs.

  • Send a concise failure notice to a connected device.
  • Include only information available in the Stripe event.
  • Keep device-side handling in one existing serial workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Stripe and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to send a short serial message for each failed direct charge, using only available event details.
  • 4Choose the Stripe Charge Failed trigger and a run report channel.
  • 5Test with one real failure example and confirm the device receives the message.

Questions about this workflow

Which Stripe failures trigger this?

The trigger covers direct charge failures in Stripe's legacy Charges API.

Does the automation initialize UART?

No. The device should already be configured for serial communication before Notis sends data.
