Review calendar availability for Basin submissions
Notis can check free and busy information for the relevant calendars and time range, then summarize what the response means for your request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Query Free/Busy Information
Returns free/busy information for a set of calendars.
Why this helps
Availability checks can become a string of calendar tabs and mental arithmetic when a request involves multiple calendars.
- Bring free and busy information into a request review.
- Check a defined window without opening each calendar separately.
- Get a concise availability summary to guide the next decision.
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 which accessible calendars and request time range to check, and how to summarize free and busy results.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Basin response and a known availability window.
Questions about this workflow
How does this differ from finding free slots?
This action returns free and busy information for specified calendars. It is useful when you want Notis to summarize availability rather than return candidate slots.
Does it book a time?
No. It reports availability for review and does not create an event.
What if a submission lacks a useful date range?
Ask Notis to report that the time range is missing so you can get the needed detail before checking.
