Keep Calendar event details in sync with Appdrag changes

Send a clear change request from Appdrag and let Notis update the relevant event fields.

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

Revised event information in Appdrag can leave a Calendar entry outdated unless someone remembers to make the same change there.

  • Apply supplied changes to an existing Calendar event.
  • Reduce duplicate editing when Appdrag event details change.
  • Use patch behavior to update only the fields requested.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Appdrag and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for updating events from Appdrag changes.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to patch the identified event using only the revised details supplied in the request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real change request and confirm the correct event was updated.

Questions about this workflow

What does the request need to identify?

Provide the valid calendar ID and event ID, along with the revised details to apply. The user must have write access to that calendar.

What happens to fields I do not include?

Patch semantics update specified fields. Array fields such as attendees are fully replaced if provided, so include the intended full attendee list when changing it.

Can this action replace an entire event?

This workflow uses Patch Event, which updates specified fields. A full replacement is a different action and needs all desired fields.
