Search Detrack as a calendar event approaches

Get a timely Detrack lookup before an event starts, using a delivery or collection reference you already have.

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

Search

Tool to search for deliveries, collections, or vehicles. use after defining search criteria to retrieve matching jobs.

Why this helps

Checking a job's details at the last minute means switching apps and searching while preparing for the event.

  • Bring a job lookup into the time window before an event.
  • Search using a reference supplied by your process.
  • See matching delivery, collection, or vehicle records in a run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Detrack in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, specify the event references or search criteria to use and how Notis should report matching Detrack results.
  • 4Pick the Google Calendar Event Starting Soon trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real upcoming event and a search term known to return a relevant record.

Questions about this workflow

Will this automatically change a job before the event?

No. The Search action retrieves matching records. A separate workflow and an explicit, verified job identifier would be needed to edit a delivery.

Can it find a job from the event time alone?

The event time can trigger the workflow, but it does not establish which Detrack job is related. Supply a usable search criterion in the event or instruction.
