Why this helps

- Review the day's existing events in one concise summary.
- Keep preparation anchored to a defined date.
- Reduce the need to scan a busy calendar manually.

- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list events from the specified Google Calendar for the supplied event day and summarize the schedule in chronological order.
- 4Pick notis_webhook and send the event date through an HTTP request.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real event day and check the summary against Calendar.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create or modify calendar events?
No. It lists calendar events and summarizes the results.
What date range should I provide?

Can the brief include Blackbaud event details?
Yes, if those details are included in the webhook request or otherwise available to Notis at run time.
