Give useful research a next step

When a search turns up something worth acting on, set aside time to do the follow-up before it disappears from view.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

Why this helps

Research often ends with a promising link and no protected time to act on it.

  • Pair a useful finding with a concrete follow-up task.
  • Use a time window supplied in the request.
  • Keep the finding link with the calendar block.

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 give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to research the question and create an event for the specific follow-up task, start time, and end time you provide, with the useful source link in the event details.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test it with one research request and valid start and end times.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis choose my work block length?

Provide the desired start and end times in your request so the event has a clear duration.

What time format is needed?

The Create Event action needs RFC3339 UTC start and end times, with the end after the start.
