Keep conference venues current in Calendar

Catch a published venue change before you head to the wrong place.

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

A venue change on an organizer's page can leave your calendar pointing to the old location.

  • Recheck the organizer's page on a chosen schedule.
  • Patch only confirmed venue changes to the matched event.
  • Keep the source page available for reference.

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 conference venue checks.
  • 3Tell Notis which conference page and Calendar event to compare, and to patch the location only when a venue change is explicit.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one conference page and verify the event location.

Questions about this workflow

Will it update other event details too?

The instruction can limit the patch to the location field so unrelated details remain untouched.

What if the page mentions multiple venues?

Have Notis report the ambiguity and avoid patching until the correct venue is clear.
