Carry Botpress scheduling changes into your calendar
Keep event details current when a conversation clearly changes the plan.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Patch Event
Updates specified fields of an existing event in a google calendar using patch semantics (array fields like `attendees` are fully replaced if provided); ensure the `calendar id` and `event id` are valid and the user has write access to the calendar.
Why this helps
A time or detail can change in chat while the calendar still shows the old plan, causing confusion later.
- Applies a requested change to an existing event.
- Uses patch behavior so only specified fields are changed.
- Makes chat-driven updates easier to capture in the calendar.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Botpress and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis how to identify the event and to patch only the fields the Botpress conversation clearly changes.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real change and confirm the intended event was updated.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which event to update?
Provide an event identifier or enough reliable context to find the event. The workflow should not guess if multiple events could match.
Can it replace attendees?
If attendees are included in a patch, the array is fully replaced. Only request that change when the complete intended attendee list is known.
What if the user only mentions a possible change?
Tell Notis to update only when the conversation clearly confirms the change; otherwise report the ambiguity.
