Notis

See the calendar context for a PDF handoff

Bring upcoming commitments into view when you prepare a document handoff or decision brief.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List Events

Returns events on the specified calendar.

Why this helps

A document may be ready while the meetings and deadlines around its handoff remain scattered.

  • Retrieve events from the chosen calendar for a requested period.
  • Summarize returned schedule details alongside the PDF handoff context.
  • Prepare for a handoff without opening the calendar and document workflow separately.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Api2pdf and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe in one instruction which calendar and time range to summarize with the supplied PDF handoff details.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real handoff request and confirm the report is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow summarize calendar events that are not returned?

No. The summary can only use events returned by the list action and details supplied in the request.

What should the request specify?

Provide the calendar and the relevant time window, plus the PDF title or link you want included in the handoff context.
