Bring useful research into the event itself
Keep public background and source links with the event where you will need them, instead of in another open tab.
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
Meeting research gets separated from the calendar entry and is hard to find at the right moment.
- Find a specific event using its title or time range.
- Research its topic with Autom web summaries or search.
- Add concise findings and sources to the event description.
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 the event type it supports.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find the specified event, research its topic, and patch the event description with a concise note and source links while preserving existing description text.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one event you can safely update.
Questions about this workflow
Will this overwrite the event description?
Ask Notis to preserve the existing description and append the research note. Review the first run to confirm the result.
What if more than one event matches?
Include a title and time range in your request, and instruct Notis to ask for clarification if the match is ambiguous.
