Keep your Bugherd review event current
Bring changed issue details into the calendar event you already use to review the work.
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
When an issue changes after a review is scheduled, the calendar event can carry stale context into the discussion.
- Keep an existing review event aligned with available Bugherd details.
- Reduce manual calendar editing when issue context changes.
- Retain event fields that the prompt does not ask Notis to change.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bugherd and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis how to identify the existing review event and which changed issue details to update.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real issue and an existing review event.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow create a new review event?
No. It uses Patch Event to update a specified existing event. The prompt needs enough information to identify that event.
Can Notis safely replace attendees?
If attendees are supplied to Patch Event, the array is fully replaced. Only ask Notis to change attendees when the complete desired list is available.
