Catch published event time changes
Check important event pages on a schedule and keep confirmed times aligned.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Patch Event
Updates specified fields of an existing event in a google calendar using patch semantics (array fields like `attendees` are fully replaced if provided); ensure the `calendar id` and `event id` are valid and the user has write access to the calendar.
Why this helps
An organizer can change the schedule after you add it, leaving your calendar with stale details.
- Check important pages without remembering to revisit them.
- Patch only confirmed changes to identified events.
- Get a run report when details are unclear.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Browserless and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for time change checks.
- 3Tell Notis which event pages and matching events to check, and to patch only clearly changed times.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one page and matching event, then verify the updated time.
Questions about this workflow
Can the automation detect every change to a page?
It can inspect the supplied page at each run, but it has no guaranteed snapshot history unless you provide a baseline or another way to identify changes.
What if the page shows a different time zone?
Tell Notis to report the difference and request clarification rather than patching a time with uncertain zone interpretation.
