Keep document context with the calendar event
Send document data to Notis and update a matching event with the reference details you will need when it comes up.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Patch Event
Updates specified fields of an existing event in a google calendar using patch semantics (array fields like `attendees` are fully replaced if provided); ensure the `calendar id` and `event id` are valid and the user has write access to the calendar.
Why this helps
A calendar event can hold the date but lack the document details needed to prepare or follow through.
- Keep a document identifier beside the relevant event.
- Make event preparation easier by including source context.
- Update selected event details with patch semantics.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Algodocs and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe how Notis should find the matching event and patch it with the document reference or relevant details.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one document and an existing matching event, then review the changed fields.
Questions about this workflow
Will patching an event replace every field?
Patch Event updates specified fields. Array fields such as attendees are fully replaced if provided, so do not include them unless you intend to replace that list.
What if Notis cannot find a matching event?
Specify whether to report the missing match or create a new event using a separate action.
