Why this helps
Meeting prep often gets squeezed between other tasks, leaving context scattered or incomplete.
- Collect useful context before a discussion.
- Keep sources close to the brief.
- Reduce last minute searching.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Autom and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the meeting brief workflow.
- 3Tell Notis to search the topic and context in the webhook request, summarize useful background and questions to raise with links, and create a Drive document.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one upcoming meeting topic.
Questions about this workflow
Can it use private meeting details?
Include only the context you want processed in the webhook request. The web search itself uses public results returned by Autom.
Does it add the brief to a calendar event?
No. It creates a Google Drive document.
