Notis

Start the day with your train options in one email

Have Notis check your route and put the useful details in a Gmail draft before the day gets busy.

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

Checking train times, disruptions, and station details across separate searches makes it easy to miss a change before leaving.

  • See relevant departure options in one place.
  • Review the draft before it is sent.
  • Reduce morning schedule checking.

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, ask Notis to check your saved route in Bart and draft a concise email with suitable trains, live alerts, and station notes.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real route and review the Gmail draft.
