Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action

Why this helps
After a prospect agrees to meet, the extra step of creating an invite can delay confirmation.
- Act on a confirmed time supplied in a webhook.
- Create a calendar event without retyping the conversation details.
- Keep accepted meetings from being lost in the inbox.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Botdog and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Google Calendar event when the webhook provides a positive reply, attendee details, and valid meeting start and end times.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and review the invite.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow detect a reply inside Botdog by itself?
No Botdog trigger event is listed. A webhook must supply the reply context and accepted time.
Will the organizer be included as an attendee?
Create Event adds the organizer by default unless the exclude-organizer option is set.
