Keep post dates current when plans change
Send an updated publishing plan and keep its calendar event aligned with the new details.
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
When a publishing date changes, the old calendar event can remain and mislead everyone planning around it.
- Update an existing post event when its details change.
- Keep calendar dates aligned with a revised publishing plan.
- Reduce confusion caused by stale post deadlines.

- 5Test the automation with one real revised plan and matching event.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a new event every time?
The Patch Event action updates specified fields of an existing event. Your instruction should identify the existing event and the new details.
What should happen if the matching event cannot be identified?
Include an instruction for Notis to report that it could not confidently identify the event, rather than updating a different calendar item.
