Find open time for the next post

Check your calendar before settling on a time to prepare or publish social content.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Find free slots

Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.

Why this helps

Choosing a post time without checking your schedule can add one more clash to a crowded day.

  • Check calendar availability within a defined time range.
  • Find open windows for preparing or publishing content.
  • Reduce calendar conflicts before committing to a post time.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ayrshare and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction the time window and social publishing work to check for.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test the automation with one real availability check.

Questions about this workflow

Does this action publish a post to Ayrshare?

No. The listed action checks Google Calendar free slots and reports available time. Publishing a post is not an action in this workflow.

What time range does the availability check cover?

Specify the desired range in your instruction. Google Calendar requires the start time to be before the end time.
