Find the calendar event for an employee review
Search the calendar with the review context you already have in HR and get likely meeting matches in one report.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Finding a review meeting can take several searches when event names and HR records use different wording.
- Find likely review events from supplied context
- Reduce manual calendar searches
- Keep HR follow-up tied to an existing appointment
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Breathe HR and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for review event lookup.
- 3Tell Notis to search Google Calendar using the employee or review context and time window in the request, then report likely matching events.
- 4Choose notis_webhook and arrange for an HTTP request to start the search when the lookup is needed.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real review request.
Questions about this workflow
What if there is no exact match?
The action searches using text and time criteria. Have Notis report likely results for a person to confirm.
Does it need a time range?
A time range helps narrow results. If both time bounds are supplied, the start must not be after the end.
