Give breaking market news a place on your calendar
When a headline needs a closer look, send it to Notis and ask for a simple calendar review block in natural language.
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 breaking headline is easy to notice and just as easy to forget when the next interruption arrives.
- Capture a follow-up block without drafting an event by hand.
- Keep a news headline tied to a time for review.
- Use a lightweight event for a straightforward reminder.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Benzinga and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to turn a submitted breaking-news headline and requested date and time into a short natural-language calendar review event.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real headline and a simple event time; Quick Add does not add attendees or recurring events.
Questions about this workflow
What can Quick Add create?
It parses natural language into a basic event title, date, and time. It does not support adding attendees or recurring events.
Can I provide the headline in the webhook request?
Yes. Include the headline and the date and time for review in the request sent to Notis.
How is this different from a detailed briefing?
This workflow creates a basic review event from natural language. For an event that needs structured context, use Google Calendar's Create Event action instead.
