Notis

Find the next meeting with a Clay contact

Check whether a conversation is already on the calendar before creating another event or sending another scheduling note.

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

Duplicate scheduling can happen when meeting details live in separate prospecting and calendar tools.

  • Search a specified date window for a matching event.
  • Use contact or company text supplied from Clay as search context.
  • Surface existing event details before another scheduling step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Clay and Google Calendar once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how to search for a contact's meeting.
  • 3Choose a Notis webhook trigger for the Clay contact details.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real contact example.

Questions about this workflow

Can it guarantee a match based on a person's name?

No. Search results may be ambiguous, so include company or other identifying text and review uncertain matches.

Will it create a meeting if none is found?

This workflow only searches and reports. You can define a separate create-event workflow for confirmed missing meetings.
