Give your Botsonic agent calendar context
When a scheduling conversation needs to know what is already planned, have Notis retrieve the relevant calendar events for the requested time range.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List Events
Returns events on the specified calendar.
Why this helps
Without current calendar context, an agent may not have enough information to help with scheduling questions.
- Retrieve events for a requested time range.
- Reduce calendar context switching during a conversation.
- Use actual calendar results to inform scheduling replies.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Botsonic and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to list events on the chosen calendar for the date range sent in the webhook and return the results for the scheduling conversation.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real webhook containing a calendar and time range.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow create or change events?
No. It lists events for the specified calendar and time range.
Can it answer whether a time is free?
Listing events can provide context, but use Find free slots or Query Free/Busy Information when the workflow needs availability results.
