Bring tide predictions into your beach planning email
Ask Notis to gather returned tide predictions into a draft you can use while planning.

Why this helps
Tide details are easy to overlook when comparing beach options across separate searches.
- Collect returned tide prediction details in one draft.
- Compare selected beaches using the same requested summary.
- Review the draft before sharing it.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beach Day API and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Tide Window Planning Draft.
- 3Tell Notis which beaches and date range to summarize from available tide predictions, and to create a Gmail draft.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Can it predict tide times the API does not return?

Can I make the draft for a particular date range?
