Notis

Read a Bolt sensor from a webhook

Make current sensor data available to systems that can send an HTTP request.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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

Teams build custom glue code when a simple sensor read could be requested directly.

  • Expose readings on demand
  • Reduce integration glue
  • Keep results in one report channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolt iot in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Webhook sensor read.
  • 3Tell Notis to read the analog pin and device identifier supplied in each webhook request.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Send one real request with a device and pin to test it.

Questions about this workflow

What range does the reading use?

The analog value is reported on the Bolt range from 0 to 1023.

Can the webhook request any pin?
