Spot Meetings That Keep Getting Pushed and Why
Every time you reschedule a meeting, Notis logs the old time, new time, and reason if you note it. Over time, you'll see which meetings are always moving.
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
Append Values to Spreadsheet
Tool to append values to a spreadsheet. use when you need to add new data to the end of an existing table in a google sheet.
Why this helps
Certain meetings keep getting rescheduled because they're low priority or there's conflict about timing. You don't track this pattern, so you keep struggling with the same meetings repeatedly.
- See which meetings are chronically rescheduled and why
- Data to make hard calls about whether a meeting is still needed
- Identify scheduling conflicts or preferences that need addressing
- Reduce reschedule chaos by being proactive about unstable meetings
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Google Sheets to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When I reschedule a meeting, log it with original time, new time, meeting title, and attendees to my rescheduling tracker sheet'
- 3Create a rescheduling tracker sheet or let Notis set one up
- 4Optionally, add a 'reason for reschedule' column you can fill in (workload, conflict, attendee request, etc.)
- 5Test by rescheduling an upcoming meeting and watching it log
Questions about this workflow
Will this track only my reschedules or reschedules made by others too?
By default, Notis logs reschedules you initiate. You can configure it to also track when others reschedule if you have edit access to those calendars.
Can I add notes about why I rescheduled?
Yes. You can add a notes column and fill it in manually, or Notis can prompt you for the reason each time.
Will this help identify meetings that should be cancelled?
Absolutely. If a meeting is rescheduled 5+ times in a quarter, that's a signal it might not be that important. Use the data to propose cancellation.
Can I track reschedules across a team or just my calendar?
You can configure it for your calendar or shared team calendars if you want to see team rescheduling patterns.
