Find the event a conversation refers to
Locate the calendar event behind a discussion without manually scanning your schedule.
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
A conversation may refer to an upcoming meeting without making it obvious which calendar entry it means.
- Search for a referenced event using transcript context.
- Surface likely matching events for review.
- Avoid manually scanning unrelated calendar entries.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Castingwords and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and add a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search for a referenced event using transcript details and a clear time range, then report likely matches.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one transcript that refers to a scheduled event.
Questions about this workflow
Can this update the event it finds?
This workflow only finds and reports matching events. Updating one should be a separate instruction with a clear match.
What if the transcript lacks a date?
The workflow can search with available details, but should report uncertainty rather than claim a match is definitive.
