See early train options in one draft

When you need an early start, get Bart's available train options ready to review in Gmail.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create email draft

Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.

Why this helps

Finding the right early departure can involve repeated checks when you are trying to get moving.

  • Collect early departures for a specified route.
  • Include relevant service alerts Bart returns.
  • Review the options in an email draft.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bart and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, name the route and early travel window and ask Notis to draft Bart's returned train options and relevant alerts.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real route and review the departure times.

Questions about this workflow

Can I set what counts as early?
