Turn a beach search into a quick calendar event
When your beach planning flow sends a request, Notis can use the beach details to add a simple visit to Google Calendar.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Quick Add Event
Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.
Why this helps
You find a beach that fits, then lose momentum copying the plan into your calendar and choosing a time.
- Move from search result to calendar plan in one step.
- Keep event creation simple for a single beach visit.
- Reduce the chance that a good option stays only in a search tab.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beach Day API and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe how Notis should use the beach details and visit time in one instruction.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real beach search request and check the resulting event.
Questions about this workflow
What starts the automation?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Your planning flow needs to send that request with useful beach and timing context.
Is Quick Add suitable for events with guests or repeats?
No. This action creates a basic event and does not support adding attendees directly or creating recurring events.
