Run Bolt serial request and response by webhook
Give calling systems immediate feedback from the device they just addressed.

Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
Why this helps
A remote command is hard to trust when the calling system cannot see whether the device replied.
- Return immediate device feedback
- Reduce uncertainty after commands
- Support request response integrations
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt iot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for the command and reply outcome.
- 3Tell Notis which ASCII message to send, which device to use, and how to report the immediate response.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select the run report destination.
- 5Test with one real HTTP request after UART initialization.
Questions about this workflow
What does the workflow return?
It sends an ASCII serial message and reads the immediate response from the Bolt device.
What must be initialized first?
UART must be initialized with serialbegin.
Can it detect a failed response?
Yes, define the expected response or timeout handling in your instruction.
