Find the right calendar for a Basin request
If your work is split across calendars, Notis can list the calendars available to your connected account and help you decide where a request belongs.
Trigger

Action
List Google Calendars
Retrieves calendars from the user's google calendar list, with options for pagination and filtering.
Why this helps
Choosing the right calendar can be another small decision that interrupts getting a scheduling request handled.
- See accessible calendars while reviewing a scheduling request.
- Make the destination decision with calendar context in one report.
- Avoid guessing which calendar should hold an event.
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 list accessible calendars and report the likely destination for the request based on your stated criteria.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Basin scheduling request and review the listed calendars.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create an event?
No. It lists available calendars and helps inform a destination decision. A separate event creation action is needed to schedule.
Can Notis know which calendar is correct?
Give it criteria such as which types of work belong on which calendars. Without those criteria, it can report options for you to choose.
Will it list calendars I cannot access?
It retrieves calendars from the connected user's calendar list, subject to that account's access.
