Turn a report request into a calendar event
When a benchmark report needs a conversation, put the proposed time on your calendar without switching apps.
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
A proposed review time can disappear in chat or notes before it becomes a real calendar event.
- Turns a report review request into a calendar event.
- Uses natural-language date and time details supplied with the webhook.
- Cuts the gap between deciding to discuss results and scheduling the conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bench and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a basic Google Calendar event from the report review request's supplied title, date, and time.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real webhook example that includes a clear date and time.
