Find Calendar Events from an Apilio Request
Ask for the event you need and let Notis search the calendar details you provide.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Searching manually for an event can break concentration when a request arrives mid-task.
- Find events using text or time range details
- Reduce manual calendar searching
- Get relevant event information in response to a request
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apilio and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to find the requested event using the provided calendar, text, and time details; ensure any start bound precedes its end bound.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report channel, then test with one real event search.
Questions about this workflow
What can I search with?
The request can specify a text query, time bounds, event start or end, last modification, and event types.
Do time bounds have an ordering requirement?
Yes. If both bounds are provided, the start must not be chronologically after the end.
