Bundle meeting prep into a PDF before it starts
As a meeting approaches, Notis can create a prep document and embed the files you want on hand.
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
Generate document with attachments
Tool to generate a PDF with embedded attachments. Use when you need to bundle extra files into the PDF output.

- Bring the meeting prep document and selected files together.
- Use the event details and available join links in a timely prep packet.
- Spend less time gathering materials as the meeting approaches.

- 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to generate a meeting prep PDF from your selected template and embed the files you identify.
- 4Pick Event Starting Soon as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real upcoming event and check the PDF and embedded files.
Questions about this workflow
How much event data does this trigger provide?
It provides event details, time remaining, attendees, and join links when available. Specify which available context should appear in the prep document.
Can Notis attach files that I have not identified?
Name the files or source of attachments in your instruction. The workflow should not assume files or historical context that the trigger does not provide.
