Find Backendless records related to synced events

Trigger

Calendar Event Sync

Polling trigger that returns full event data including details, attendees, and metadata. For real-time notifications with basic info, use Calendar Event Changes (webhook).

Action

General Object Retrieval

Tool to retrieve objects from a specified backendless table with filtering, sorting, and pagination. use after confirming the table name and query options. example: "get users where age > 30 sorted by created desc".

Why this helps

Checking whether a meeting already has a related record often means searching another system by hand.

  • Use full event details to guide a targeted Backendless query.
  • Find related records at the point of calendar sync.
  • Reduce manual cross-checking between calendar and data tables.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis which Backendless table and query criteria to use with the returned event details.
  • 4Pick Calendar Event Sync as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real synced event and a known matching record.
