Find open time for member sessions
Know which time slots are open before you settle on the next member session.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find free slots
Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Planning a session without checking availability first can lead to avoidable rescheduling.
- Find free time slots within a defined calendar window.
- Review availability before committing to session times.
- Get the results on a schedule through a Notis run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for member session availability.
- 3Tell Notis to find free calendar slots in the time window you supply for planning member sessions.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real availability window and verify that the time range is correct.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow book a member session?
No. It finds available slots and reports them. Use the result to decide when to schedule a session.
What time range should I provide?
Provide a start and end time with the start earlier than the end. The free-slot search needs a defined range for reliable results.
