Keep calendar preferences in view while planning Marvin work

Include your current calendar preferences in a planning check, so scheduling decisions use the settings available to your account.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

List Settings

Returns all user settings for the authenticated user.

Why this helps

Planning routines can overlook account-level calendar preferences when that context is not reviewed.

  • Bring available calendar preferences into a planning summary.
  • Reduce assumptions about account settings.
  • Keep a recurring review lightweight.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Amazing Marvin and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Google Calendar settings and report only preferences relevant to planning Marvin tasks, without changing any settings.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test once and confirm the reported settings are useful to your planning routine.

Questions about this workflow

Will this change my Google Calendar settings?

No. It retrieves and reports settings only.

Can it infer preferences that are not in the settings?

No. It should report what the action returns and mark any missing preference as unknown.
