Find an open time without checking calendars by hand
Send the request and let Notis look for free slots within the time range you provide.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Finding a meeting time can mean checking several calendars and going back and forth.
- See possible openings across relevant calendars.
- Cut manual availability checks.
- Use the request's time window to focus the search.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Backendless and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe that Notis should find open slots for each request using its stated date range and calendars.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real request that includes a start and end for the search window.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a meeting?
No. It finds available slots and reports them. Use a separate workflow to create an event after choosing a time.
What time range is searched?
Provide the desired time window in the request. The search requires the start to precede the end.
