Correct calendar summaries from Basin feedback
A calendar name correction in a Basin response can be applied as a patch when the request specifies a clear, non-empty replacement summary.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Patch Calendar
Partially updates (patches) an existing google calendar, modifying only the fields provided; `summary` is mandatory and cannot be an empty string, and an empty string for `description` or `location` clears them.
Why this helps
Small naming corrections can sit in a form response while people continue using an unclear calendar title.
- Apply clear calendar summary corrections.
- Patch the specified calendar details.
- Reduce follow-up admin for simple naming changes.
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 patch the specified calendar summary only when the response supplies a non-empty replacement.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real correction request and verify the resulting summary.
Questions about this workflow
Can the replacement summary be empty?
No. The action requires a non-empty summary.
Does this update event titles?
No. It patches a calendar summary. Use an event update action to change an event title.
What if the request includes other metadata changes too?
State in your instruction which metadata fields to patch and ensure the submission clearly provides the desired values.
