Spot calendar conflicts around upcoming shifts
Get a focused calendar check for the shifts you want to review, with potential overlaps surfaced before the week gets busy.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Comparing a restaurant schedule with personal or business commitments can mean bouncing between apps and scanning dates one by one.
- Review relevant calendar events in a defined time window.
- Bring potential overlaps into one concise report.
- Make time to resolve schedule conflicts before they become missed commitments.

- 5Test with one real example, including the shift times and review window.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow read shift schedules directly from 7shifts?
No 7shifts trigger events are listed here. Provide the shift details to Notis, such as in the automation request or its input source, for comparison.
How does it find calendar events?
It uses Google Calendar's Find event action for a specified calendar and time range. The start of the range must not be later than its end.
Will Notis change or cancel conflicting events?
No. This workflow identifies possible overlaps for review and does not change events.
