Notis

See when the review team is busy

Ask Notis to check free and busy information for selected calendars over the time range you are considering.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Query Free/Busy Information

Returns free/busy information for a set of calendars.

Why this helps

Coordinating a review across people can stall when each person's availability has to be checked separately.

  • Check availability across the calendars you specify.
  • Choose a time range that fits the review plan.
  • Reduce back and forth while coordinating the team.

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 query free and busy information for the calendars and time range supplied in the request, then summarize the result.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real coordination request and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from finding free slots?

This action returns free and busy information for specified calendars. Find free slots is designed to return available slots within a time range.

What does the request need?

Supply the calendars and time range to check. The action only reports availability; it does not create a meeting.
