Find time for the last check before publishing
Check for a realistic review window before the issue goes live, so the final read does not become a last-minute scramble.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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 final review is often squeezed into whatever time remains when no slot was planned in advance.
- Find review time before a supplied publication deadline.
- Replace last-minute calendar scanning with a scheduled availability check.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beehiiv and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find free slots for a final newsletter review in the supplied date range before publication.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real issue deadline and verify the range and results.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow know when the issue will publish?
Only when you provide the deadline or date range. Beehiiv does not provide a trigger event in this setup.
Will it reserve a slot automatically?
No. It finds and reports open slots. You can decide which option to use and create an event separately.
