Create tracking calendars for every new Airtable view
New Airtable views often track a specific workflow. Notis automatically creates a matching Google Calendar so you can see that workflow's events in one place.
Trigger
View Created
Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.
Action
Create a calendar
Creates a new, empty google calendar with the specified title (summary).
Why this helps
You create new views in Airtable to organize work but lack a corresponding calendar structure, so timelines get scattered across multiple calendars.
- Automatically organize calendars by workflow
- Keep view-specific events together
- Reduce calendar clutter by segregating work types
- Enable easy delegation of view-specific calendars
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Google Calendar to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new view is created in my Airtable, automatically create a Google Calendar with the view's name.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Integration event' and select 'View Created' from Airtable.
- 4Tell Notis to use the Airtable view name as the calendar title.
- 5Test by creating a new view in Airtable and checking that a calendar appears in Google Calendar.
Questions about this workflow
Will this calendar automatically populate with events from that view?
Not automatically, but you can build a second automation to add events from that view to the calendar.
Can I delete the calendar if I delete the Airtable view?
You'd need to delete it manually, but you can ask Notis to watch for deleted views and remove calendars.
Should I make these calendars shared or private?
Tell Notis your preference and it will set the privacy level as the calendar is created.
