Sync calendar changes into project awareness
Catch schedule changes that affect the work you are tracking.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Sync Events
Synchronizes google calendar events, performing a full sync if no `sync token` is provided or if a 410 gone error (due to an expired token) necessitates it, otherwise performs an incremental sync for events changed since the `sync token` was issued.
Why this helps
Calendar changes happen after planning notes are written and go unnoticed.
- Detect changed or new events
- Connect schedule changes to project notes
- Reduce surprise conflicts
