Give time off a clear handoff
Create a calendar checkpoint before leave starts, so coverage has a place on the schedule.
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
Teams can notice approved leave but still miss the conversation about who covers what.
- Create a visible checkpoint before an employee's leave begins.
- Keep the employee and supplied coverage notes together.
- Reduce last-minute coverage follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BambooHR and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for PTO handoffs.
- 3Tell Notis to schedule a coverage handoff before the leave dates using the PTO details and coverage notes you provide.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real PTO example and confirm the event date and details.
Questions about this workflow
Will this detect PTO approval on its own?
No. BambooHR trigger events are not available here. Send the PTO details to the Notis webhook when you want the handoff scheduled.
Can it decide who should cover the work?
Only if you provide that information. Notis can use coverage notes supplied in the webhook request or prompt context.
