Apply Basin change requests to calendar event details
When a submitted update identifies an existing event and the requested change, Notis can patch the specified event details while preserving other fields.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Patch Event
Updates specified fields of an existing event in a google calendar using patch semantics (array fields like `attendees` are fully replaced if provided); ensure the `calendar id` and `event id` are valid and the user has write access to the calendar.
Why this helps
Transferring a clear change request to an existing event is a small admin task that can slip between conversations.
- Apply clear submitted changes to an existing event.
- Update specified event fields with patch semantics.
- Reduce manual copying of revised details.
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 only a specified existing event when the response clearly identifies it and states the requested changes.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real change request and an event you can verify.
Questions about this workflow
What if the request does not identify an existing event?
Have Notis report the missing event reference for review rather than guessing which event to update.
Does patching replace the entire event?
Patch semantics update specified fields. If an array field such as attendees is provided, that array is fully replaced.
Does this action require write access?
Yes. The connected Google Calendar account must have write access to the calendar.
