Check a release window before it gets crowded
Before a planned release, have Notis check calendar availability across the time range you provide and report busy periods with context.
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 release window can be chosen without seeing the meetings and commitments already occupying that time.
- See calendar conflicts around a specified release window.
- Use one scheduled check to bring repository timing and availability together.
- Get event context for busy periods when available.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitbucket and Google Calendar once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read the release timing you specify from Bitbucket context, check Calendar free slots for that range, and report conflicts.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real release window and confirm the reported availability.
Questions about this workflow
Can the automation decide the release window by itself?
Only if the Bitbucket data you identify provides a usable time range. Otherwise, supply the window in the instruction or report that timing is missing.
Does this book a release event?
No. It checks availability and reports busy periods; it does not reserve a slot.
