Automatic weekly email digests from your calendar
Every Friday, Notis drafts a weekly digest with this week's meetings, outcomes, and next week's focus. Send it to your team—zero manual compilation.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List drafts
Retrieves a paginated list of email drafts from a user's gmail account. use verbose=true to get full draft details including subject, body, sender, and timestamp.
Why this helps
End-of-week, everyone asks 'What did we accomplish?' You manually compile a list of meetings and tasks, repeating work you've already done in your calendar.
- Save hours by automating weekly recap compilation instead of manually reviewing and typing
- Communicate progress clearly by giving stakeholders a structured view of the week
- Reduce context-switching by having everything in one email instead of scattered messages
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Gmail to Notis
- 2Create a recurring automation: 'Every Friday at 4 PM, create a weekly digest email with this week's meetings and next week's priorities'
- 3Customize what goes in the digest (attendees, outcomes, notes, goals for next week)
- 4Choose your notification channel to know when the draft is ready
- 5Test by running it manually, reviewing the draft, and adjusting format if needed
Questions about this workflow
Can I include results or outcomes, not just a list of meetings?
Yes. If you've been adding notes or status to your calendar events, Notis pulls those in. Or you can manually add outcomes to the draft before sending.
What if I have recurring meetings I don't want listed?
Tell Notis 'Exclude meetings labeled recurring' or 'Skip standup meetings from the digest' to keep the recap focused on high-impact items.
Can I send this to different people each week?
Yes. You control who gets it each time you send the draft, or you can create separate automations for different distribution lists.
