Notis

See the calendar context for an Amara project

Ask Notis to find calendar events mentioning a project before you schedule another review or editing block.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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

Scheduling without checking existing commitments can create duplicate sessions or competing plans.

  • Find related calendar entries before creating new plans.
  • Use a project name and time range to focus the search.
  • Reduce duplicate or conflicting review sessions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Amara and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to find Google Calendar events matching the project context and time range supplied in the request, then summarize relevant results.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real project search and check that the results are useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this search Amara projects directly?

No. It searches Google Calendar using the project context included in the request.

What time range should I provide?

Provide the time range you want searched. If both time bounds are used, the start bound must not be later than the end bound.
