Add a weather note to a calendar event on request

When a request comes in, put relevant current conditions beside the event you need to review.

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 useful weather check is less actionable when its result stays outside the event you need to plan around.

  • Start the check from a request
  • Keep a weather note with the matching event
  • Make the event description useful for review

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ambient Weather and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation and describe the event note.
  • 3Choose the webhook trigger and arrange for your system to send an HTTP request with enough context to identify the event.
  • 4Choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test on a real event and inspect the patched description.

Questions about this workflow
