Give active goals a regular place in your week
Notis reviews your Beeminder goals on a schedule and adds sessions for goals that need attention, using the planning rules you provide.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
Why this helps
Keeping several goals moving can mean repeatedly deciding what deserves time this week.
- Turn a recurring review into calendar time for action.
- Keep active goals in view during weekly planning.
- Set your own priorities and session limits in plain language.
Setup

- 1Connect Beeminder and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Describe which goals need sessions and how Notis should choose time in one instruction.
- 4Choose the recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Beeminder goal and review the created event.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide which goals to schedule?
Yes. Tell Notis the prioritization rules to use, such as upcoming deadlines or goals you name. Any preference or baseline not available from Beeminder must be included in your instruction.
Will it schedule sessions every week?
It runs on the schedule you choose. Include instructions for avoiding duplicate or already completed sessions.
