Make calendar edits easier to absorb
When plans shift, a short, consistent update can help you see what changed and regain your place in the day.
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
Get Portals
Tool to list all portals. use when you need to browse portal metadata with pagination after authentication.
Why this helps
A small calendar edit can get lost among notifications and force you to re-check the event.
- Uses the trigger's changed fields and previous and new values.
- Creates a concise change summary alongside a portal metadata check.
- Helps reduce repeated calendar re-checking.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Cats once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to fetch Cats portal metadata and summarize the event fields that changed, including previous and new values.
- 4Pick Event Updated as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real event update.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis know which fields changed?
The Event Updated trigger returns the event ID, change type, and the specific fields changed with their previous and new values.
Can the Cats action add a cat fact to the report?
No. The available Cats action lists portal metadata and does not return cat facts.
