Add a shift reminder in a sentence
Send the shift details you need to remember, and have Notis turn them into a basic calendar event with Quick Add.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Quick Add Event
Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.
Why this helps
A shift can slip your mind when you have to manually recreate its date and time in a second app.
- Create a basic reminder from a natural-language description.
- Keep key shift times on the calendar you already check.
- Avoid retyping simple schedule details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 7shifts and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or tell Notis what to do from your preferred channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: quick-add a basic calendar event from shift details included in the incoming request.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real shift description and confirm the date and time.
Questions about this workflow
Does Quick Add support attendees or recurring events?
No. This action is for basic events and does not support directly adding attendees or creating recurring events.
Where do the shift details come from?
The webhook request must provide the natural-language shift description. The available context lists no 7shifts event trigger.
Can I use a calendar other than the primary calendar?
Yes, if the requested calendar ID is valid. The primary calendar can be used without specifying another calendar ID.
