Make an explicit request to clear a primary calendar visible for deliberate review and action.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Clear Calendar
Clears a primary calendar. this operation deletes all events associated with the primary calendar of an account.
Why this helps
A request to remove all events can be easy to miss in chat, but acting on it changes an entire calendar at once.
- Surfaces explicit requests that affect every event on a primary calendar.
- Makes the scope of the request clear in the run report.
- Lets the instruction require a deliberate confirmation before executing the clear action.
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 to identify explicit primary-calendar clear requests, summarize the impact, and only proceed if your instruction includes a deliberate confirmation condition.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and verify the report identifies the primary calendar and scope.
