Notis

Prepare a Brex transaction snapshot before a meeting

Before a finance meeting starts, Notis can retrieve transactions for the period in the event details and summarize the activity.

Trigger

Event Starting Soon

Triggers when a calendar event is within a configured number of minutes from starting. Returns event details, time remaining, attendees, and join links when available.

Action

Get Transactions

Get transactions for a date range.

Why this helps

Meeting time gets used to find records instead of discussing what they mean.

  • Gather transaction data shortly before a scheduled review.
  • Use the meeting details to identify the relevant period.
  • Have a summary ready in the selected run report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Brex once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve and summarize Brex transactions for the period stated in the upcoming finance meeting event.
  • 4Select the Event Starting Soon trigger and choose its lead time and report channel.
  • 5Test with one real meeting.

Questions about this workflow

Does this send the summary to meeting attendees?

No. Run reports go to the channel you choose. Share the summary through your normal process if attendees need it.

What if the event has no review period?

Include a default period in your instruction or add the period to the event details.
