Keep declined RSVPs visible for event planning
Make the no responses easy to review when you are planning capacity or deciding whom to follow up with.
Trigger
Attendee Response Changed
Polling trigger that fires when any attendee's RSVP changes to accepted, declined, or tentative. Returns attendee info and current status.
Action
Add Group Member
Tool to add a member to a group in ActiveTrail. Use when you need to add a contact to a specific group with their email and optional contact details.
Why this helps
Declined responses are mixed in with other calendar activity, making attendance decisions harder to revisit later.
- Keep declined responses together for review.
- Reduce manual RSVP checks during event planning.
- Use a dedicated group for event-specific attendance decisions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and ActiveTrail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, in the portal or from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add an attendee to your existing declined-RSVP group only when their status is declined.
- 4Pick Attendee Response Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real declined RSVP.
Questions about this workflow
Does the automation remove someone if they later change their response?
The selected action adds a group member. It does not remove members from a group when their status changes, so review the group if RSVP changes need to be reflected there.
Can this send a different message to declined invitees?
No. This workflow adds them to an ActiveTrail group and does not send a message.
What data does the trigger provide?
It returns attendee information and the current accepted, declined, or tentative status.
