Trigger

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

Why this helps
An outdoor meeting can become a poor fit when pollen levels are higher than expected.
- Checks pollen conditions before creating an event.
- Keeps the schedule decision tied to a specified location and threshold.
- Reports when the data does not support an automatic scheduling decision.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ambee and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Pollen checked outdoor meeting.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check Ambee pollen counts for the meeting location and create the Google Calendar event only when your specified threshold is met; otherwise send a report for review.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with a real location and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide which pollen threshold is appropriate?
No. Provide the threshold that fits your plans, or have Notis report the count for you to decide.
What if the pollen data is unavailable?
Instruct Notis to report that the reading was unavailable and avoid creating an event until you review it.
