Check that incoming employees have a visible first day
Find out whether a welcome or first-day event appears near each upcoming start date.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
A new starter can arrive to a quiet calendar when the people involved expected a welcome plan to be there.
- Catch missing welcome events early
- Reduce uncertainty around first-day plans
- Make onboarding readiness easier to review
