Notis

Get automatic weekly team availability reports

Scheduling team work is painful without clear availability. Notis runs every Friday afternoon, checks all team calendars for next week, and gives you a free/busy report so you know when everyone is available.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Query Free/Busy Information

Returns free/busy information for a set of calendars.

Why this helps

You waste time manually checking each team member's calendar, and even then you miss availability shifts or timezone differences.

  • See all team availability at a glance
  • Stop individually checking each person's calendar
  • Schedule team meetings faster
  • Reduce back-and-forth finding meeting times

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar to Notis and add team member calendars.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Every Friday at 3pm, check the free/busy information for my team's calendars for the following week and send me a summary.'
  • 3Select 'Cron schedule' and set it to Friday afternoons.
  • 4Tell Notis which team members' calendars to check.
  • 5Test by running the automation once to see the availability report.

Questions about this workflow

Do team members need to share their calendars with me?

Yes, they need to share their Google Calendars with you so Notis can access their availability.

Will this show event details or just busy/free blocks?

By default, just busy/free times for privacy. You can customize to see event titles if needed.

Can this automatically suggest optimal meeting times?

Yes. Tell Notis to analyze the report and suggest 3 times when everyone is free next week.
