Notis

Catch event updates before they catch you out

Pair your upcoming calendar with a scheduled web check for updated details, and get a report when something may have changed.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

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

Calendar entries can go stale when venues, schedules, or event details change after you add them.

  • Find upcoming events matching a defined text query.
  • Check public sources for updated event details.
  • Review findings before deciding whether to change an event.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Autom and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the event type to review.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find upcoming matching calendar events, research their public sources with Autom, and report possible changes with links without editing events.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one upcoming event that has a public source page.

Questions about this workflow

Will it automatically change the calendar event?

No. This workflow reports possible changes for review. It does not update events.

Can it verify private or invite-only event updates?

Autom can research public web information. Private updates must be supplied in the calendar data or by you.
