Find the event for a browser task
Check for an existing calendar commitment before adding another follow-up for the same browser task.
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
When a task has moved across tools, it can be hard to remember whether you already scheduled time for it.
- Search calendar events using task context.
- Reduce duplicate review blocks for the same run.
- Use a defined time range to narrow the search.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Browserbase tool and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis what run details to search for and specify the calendar and time range.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task that already has a related calendar event.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create an event when no match is found?
No. Find Event searches for existing events. Creating a new event requires a separate instruction and an event-creation action.
What if the run details are too broad?
Provide distinctive terms and a useful time range. The search can only match information available from the run and calendar.
