Check for a planned follow-up first
Find the reminder you may already have before deciding what needs attention next.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Without checking your calendar, status alerts can lead to duplicate reminders and fragmented plans.
- Search for related events using available transaction details.
- See whether a follow-up is already on the calendar.
- Support a calmer decision about the next action.
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.
- 3Ask Notis to search for a related calendar event using a distinctive detail from the update and report matches.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with an update whose related event is known.
Questions about this workflow
Can Find Event create a reminder if none is found?
No. This action searches existing events. Use a separate create action in a workflow designed to make an event.
What information helps find the right event?
A transaction identifier or a distinctive title phrase is useful if it appears in both the update and event.
