Find calendar openings for proposal follow-up
Connect a specific proposal question with the next open review windows, so scheduling is one less thing to work out manually.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find free slots
Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.
Why this helps
A proposal question can wait longer than necessary while you search across calendars for an opening.
- Finds available review windows on selected calendars.
- Uses a specific proposal request as context.
- Cuts down manual calendar searching.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beaconchain and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis: On webhook start, review the referenced Beaconchain proposal and find 30-minute free slots on my selected calendars within the requested range.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and report channel.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm returned slots fit the request.
Questions about this workflow
Does finding a slot book it?
No. This action returns possible free slots. A person can select one, or you can create a separate workflow that creates an event from an explicitly supplied time.
Can the request specify calendars?
Include the calendar scope and requested date range in the webhook input and instruction.
