Create Apollo prep tasks before Calendar meetings

Get a focused prep reminder before the next conversation begins.

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

Create Apollo Task

Creates a distinct apollo.io task for each contact id in contact ids, assigning them to user id; this action is not for free plan users and repeated calls create duplicate tasks.

Why this helps

Meeting preparation gets squeezed out because the calendar alert arrives without a sales task.

  • Improves meeting readiness
  • Reduces last-minute scrambling
  • Makes preparation visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and Apollo in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to create a prep task for the matching Apollo contact when a meeting is approaching.
  • 3Pick Event Starting Soon as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with a meeting that starts soon.

Questions about this workflow

Can the task include meeting context?

Yes. Tell Notis to use the event title, attendees, and available notes.

What if the attendee is not in Apollo?

Ask Notis to report the missing match rather than create an unlinked task.
