Check calendar availability for scanned appointment requests
Check for conflicts while the request is still in hand, so you can respond with a viable time sooner.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find free slots
Find available time slots by comparing busy periods across calendars.
Why this helps
A request can look ready to book until you discover that the proposed time is already occupied.
- Check free slots for the time range included in an appointment request.
- Surface conflicts before a time is promised.
- Avoid searching the calendar by hand for every incoming request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Codereadr and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to check Google Calendar free slots for the requested time range in each Codereadr appointment request and report whether the proposed time is available.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and configure Codereadr or your sending service to send the request details to it.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real request that has a defined time range.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow book the appointment?
No. It checks for free slots and reports availability. Use the result to confirm or propose a time before creating an event.
Can it check availability without a time range?
The request needs a defined time range. The workflow should report missing range details rather than assume when to search.
