Refresh stale calendar details from the job record

Bring an existing calendar entry back in line with the current Ascora job details when you have the complete information.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Google event

Updates an existing event by `event id` in a google calendar; this is a full put replacement, so provide all desired fields as unspecified ones may be cleared or reset.

Why this helps

Old customer or job notes in a calendar event can mislead whoever is preparing for the work.

  • Refresh event information from the current job record.
  • Keep preparation details together with the scheduled work.
  • Reduce stale context in calendar entries.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ascora and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis to find the matching event, retrieve the complete desired event details from Ascora, and update the event.
  • 3Choose the webhook trigger and report channel, then test with one real job and event.
  • 4Inspect the updated event because this action replaces the event and unspecified fields may be cleared or reset.

Questions about this workflow

Why does this use a full update?

The listed Update Google event action is a full put replacement. Notis needs all desired event fields to avoid clearing or resetting unspecified fields.

What if the event match is unclear or job details are incomplete?

Ask Notis to stop and report the uncertainty or missing details before updating anything.
