Turn Calendar Planning Sessions into BugHerd Tasks
Keep decisions from planning sessions moving by asking Notis to create a BugHerd task when a new calendar event appears.

Why this helps
Planning sessions get booked, but the follow-up work can disappear between the calendar and the issue tracker.
- Capture planning work in the team's task tracker
- Reduce manual copying after scheduling
- Keep follow-up visible in BugHerd

- 1Connect Google Calendar and BugHerd once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3Describe that each new planning session should create a BugHerd task with the event summary and available timing details.
- 4Pick the Event Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real planning event.
