Refresh a Cal team event type from a structured Google Doc
Keep team scheduling rules current when the operating document changes shape.
Trigger
Document Structure Changed
Triggers when a Google Doc's structure changes (headers/footers added/removed, tables/images count changes). This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed
Action
Create team event types with custom options
Creates a highly customizable cal.com team event type with extensive scheduling, booking, and host assignment options; `lengthinminutes` (as string) must be included in `lengthinminutesoptions`, destination calendar details (from `/api/v2/calendars`) must be valid, and host user ids must be valid team members.
Why this helps
Important scheduling rules hidden in tables and sections drift away from the team event type.
- Keep event settings aligned
- Reduce manual configuration work
- Turn document governance into a repeatable process

- 3Tell Notis to read the changed sections and create or update the Cal team event type with the supported details.
- 4Pick the Document Structure Changed trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one approved structure change.
