Notis

Find open time for your next content task

Search for available calendar space in a chosen window, then use the result to plan the next BulkPublish task.

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

Finding a realistic time for content work can take more effort than the work itself.

  • See open time without scanning every event.
  • Plan content work around existing commitments.
  • Make your next work block easier to choose.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and BulkPublish once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe the time window and the length of work block you want to find.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run and review the suggested availability.

Questions about this workflow

Will this book the free time automatically?

No. This workflow finds available slots. You can review the result before asking Notis to create an event.

What information should I provide?

Specify the calendar, date range, timezone, and desired block length so the availability search has clear boundaries.
