Action

Why this helps
A calendar connection problem can quietly make scheduling less reliable until someone checks it.
- Surface sync status without opening Cal to check manually.
- Share a simple integration pulse in an Ably channel.
- Spot a connection issue earlier through a recurring check.

- 1Connect Ably and Cal once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to check the Google Calendar synchronization status in Cal and post a short status update to the chosen Ably channel.
- 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the status message is clear.
