Action
Create appointment group
Creates a new appointment group in canvas for schedulable time slots within specified course or group contexts.
Why this helps
Coordinating appointment availability manually after each intake creates another task to remember and set up.
- Start appointment planning from intake
- Reduce repeat setup for scheduled sessions
- Keep course or group context explicit

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis which new contacts require an appointment group and provide the Canvas course or group and scheduling details.
- 4Pick the HubSpot Contact Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real contact and verify the appointment group.
