Apply calendar detail requests from Basin
When a submission clearly identifies a calendar and a metadata change, Notis can update that calendar's details for you.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update Calendar
Updates metadata for a calendar.
Why this helps
Calendar descriptions and other details can become outdated when updates are requested through a separate form.
- Apply calendar detail changes from a clear request.
- Keep calendar metadata current with less manual admin.
- Route calendar updates through a consistent review flow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Basin and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to update only the specified calendar metadata fields when the response clearly identifies the calendar and desired changes.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real metadata request and verify the calendar details.
Questions about this workflow
Can this change event details?
No. It updates metadata for a calendar. Use an event update action for changes to an event.
What is required to update a calendar?
The action requires a non-empty summary. An empty description or location clears that field.
What if the request does not identify a calendar?
Have Notis flag the missing calendar for review instead of updating an assumed destination.
