Notis

Find a free window for your recorded priorities

Use your upcoming commitments to guide a recurring search for usable open time.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Find free slots

Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.

Why this helps

Knowing what needs work does not help if you cannot see when the calendar has room for it.

  • Find available calendar slots for dated work.
  • Plan against existing busy intervals.
  • Reduce the effort of manually comparing records and calendar availability.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ApptiveGrid and Google Calendar in the Notis portal once.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction which dated work to plan and what time window to search.
  • 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real commitment and review the suggested free slots.

Questions about this workflow

Does this book a focus slot?

No. Find free slots returns availability; it does not create an event.

What time range should it search?

Set a specific range in your instruction. The start time must come before the end time.
