Find room for a transaction check-in
Let your calendar show when a focused review can fit, instead of trying to squeeze it between tasks.
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
Finding time to review transaction status can become another scheduling task on top of the review itself.
- Find an available slot using calendar free/busy data.
- Plan a review without manually scanning the day.
- Pair a check-in with the transaction information available to Notis.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blocknative and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe the review duration and time window, then ask Notis to find a free slot and report it alongside available transaction data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real calendar range and confirm the returned slot.
Questions about this workflow
Does finding a slot book it automatically?
No. Find Free Slots returns availability; this workflow does not create an event.
What duration will it search for?
State the desired review duration in your instruction so Notis can evaluate suitable free slots.
