Keep event-linked document records current
When an event's document details change, ask Notis to update the matching Affinda document record.
Trigger
Event Updated
Triggers when an existing Google Calendar event is modified. Returns the event ID, change type, and the specific fields that changed with their previous and new values.
Action
Update Document
Tool to update specific fields of a document. use when you need to rename, reassign, or adjust expiry and storage settings after document creation.
Why this helps
A changed calendar event can leave document references and record details out of sync.
- React to modified event details without manual monitoring.
- Keep an existing Affinda document record aligned with updated event information.
- Use changed fields to direct a focused record update.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Affinda once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to update the matching Affinda document when a changed event contains a clear document reference and supported record details.
- 4Pick Event Updated as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real updated event and an identifiable Affinda document.
Questions about this workflow
Will this change parsed resume or invoice values?
Update Document changes document fields such as its name, assignment, expiry, or storage settings. Use Update Document Data for parsed resume or job description fields, and provide the needed values and document match.
What if the event does not identify the document clearly?
The prompt should ask Notis to report the ambiguity instead of updating a record it cannot reliably match.
