Give new Google Tasks relevant Elasticsearch context
Create a task and find the records that can help you move it forward, without a separate search.
Trigger
New Task Created
A new task is created in a task list.
Action
Query Index
Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.
Why this helps
Tasks often arrive without the background needed to act, leaving you to switch tools and search by hand.
- Find related documents as soon as a task is created.
- Reduce tool switching before starting work.
- Use the task's available title and notes as search context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Tasks and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to search the chosen Elasticsearch index for documents relevant to each new task, using its title and notes.
- 4Pick New Task Created as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task and review the search results.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow add results to the Google Task?
No. The available Elasticsearch action searches an index and returns documents; this workflow can surface findings in its run report.
What if the task has no useful notes?
Notis can search using the task title. Results depend on the available task details and the index contents.
