Find open time for focused work
See where your calendar leaves room for focused work before you start filling the week with more commitments.
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
Finding a workable stretch of open time can take repeated calendar checks and mental arithmetic.
- Find free slots over a planning range you choose.
- Review availability in a readable report.
- Reduce manual scanning of busy calendar views.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Astica AI and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations with a name and prompt.
- 3Describe in one instruction which calendar availability to find and how to summarize useful open slots.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and report destination.
- 5Test with a real planning range and review the returned free slots.
Questions about this workflow
Can I specify which calendars to check?
State the calendars and time range in your instruction. The workflow depends on access to the calendars you select.
Does this reserve a focus block?
No. It finds availability and reports the slots; it does not create an event or reserve time.
What if no time range is provided?
Find Free Slots defaults to the current day in UTC when time bounds are omitted. Specify the intended range to make a weekly planning scan useful.
