Put a cancellation timestamp in local time context

A timestamp without timezone context can slow down your next decision. Retrieve the current time in the timezone you use to plan.

Trigger

Event Canceled or Deleted

Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.

Action

Get current date and time

Gets the current date and time, allowing for a specific timezone offset.

Why this helps

Cancellation timestamps can be hard to interpret when you are planning in a local timezone.

  • Retrieve current date and time for a specified timezone.
  • Make it easier to interpret when a cancellation arrived in your planning context.
  • Avoid manually checking timezone settings.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Ask Notis to retrieve the current date and time in your chosen timezone when a cancellation alert arrives, and report it with the alert timestamp.
  • 4Pick Google Super Event Canceled or Deleted as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real cancellation alert and your planning timezone.

Questions about this workflow

Does this convert the canceled event's scheduled time?

No. The action retrieves the current date and time for a timezone. It does not convert an event time.

Where do I specify the timezone?

Name the timezone in your instruction so Notis can use it for the lookup.
