Clear canceled meetings out of your searchable catalog

Keep canceled events from showing up in searches by removing their known records when Calendar reports a cancellation or deletion.

Trigger

Event Canceled or Deleted

Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.

Action

Delete Multiple Records

Tool to delete multiple records from an algolia index. use when you need to remove multiple objects by their ids.

Why this helps

Canceled meetings can linger in a separate searchable catalog and create confusion when you look up upcoming or past work.

  • Remove obsolete meeting records promptly
  • Avoid confusion from canceled events in search
  • Reduce manual cleanup after calendar changes

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction, including that the Google Calendar event ID matches the Algolia object ID.
  • 4Pick the Event Canceled or Deleted trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real cancellation and confirm the intended record is removed.

Questions about this workflow

What information does the cancellation trigger provide?

It provides the event ID, summary when available, and cancellation timestamp.

Can Algolia delete a record without its object ID?

No. The matching record ID needs to be known or resolvable from the information available.

Will the event's cancellation details be retained?

This action deletes the matching record. If you need an audit trail, retain that information elsewhere before deletion.
