Notis

Protect time for the billing work that keeps slipping

Find open space for follow-ups before the week fills up with other commitments.

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

Customer and subscription follow-ups can be repeatedly postponed when there is no protected time to do them.

  • Identify free slots within a chosen period.
  • Make room for concentrated billing follow-up work.
  • Reduce the friction of deciding when to start.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Billsby and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to find free slots in a defined upcoming window for billing follow-up work.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one run and confirm the availability window is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Will this reserve the slots it finds?

No. It reports free/busy openings; it does not create an event to hold a slot.

What happens if the time range is omitted?

The action defaults to the current UTC day. Provide a defined range for a scheduled forward-looking search.
