Keep meeting context in step with event changes
A changed title or other event detail can change what you need to prepare. Have Notis check Contentful against the updated meeting context.
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
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
Why this helps
Meeting changes can leave preparation notes tied to an old topic, project, or purpose.
- Recheck relevant entries when an event changes
- Use the changed fields to refresh meeting context
- Catch shifts in a meeting topic sooner
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Contentful in the Notis portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Notis Automations or tell Notis in plain language from a connected channel.
- 3Ask Notis to use changed event details to query Contentful and summarize relevant context.
- 4Choose Event Updated as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real event update and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger for any changed event field?
The listed trigger fires when an existing event is modified and returns the change type and fields that changed. Tell Notis how to use those details.
Can it compare current Contentful data with older event context?
It can analyze returned data, but historical Contentful snapshots or prior meeting context must be supplied if you need a baseline.
