Clear finished Notion tasks off Google Calendar

You finish a task in Notion but the time block still sits on your calendar, making a done day look busy and a light day look full. Notis notices the status change and removes the matching event, so your calendar only shows what is actually still ahead.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Delete event

Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.

Why this helps

Completed and cancelled tasks leave dead time blocks on the calendar, making it impossible to trust what free time you really have.

  • Your calendar shows only open work, not finished blocks
  • Free time reads as free instead of falsely booked
  • No manual deleting of events you already completed
  • Cancelled tasks disappear from your day without a trace

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Google Calendar to Notis from the portal if needed.
  • 2Open Automations in the portal and click New Automation, or ask Notis directly in any channel.
  • 3Describe it plainly: when a Notion task is marked done or cancelled, delete its matching Google Calendar event.
  • 4Pick the Page Properties Updated trigger and set the channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by completing one task in Notion and confirming its event disappears.

Questions about this workflow

What happens if the event was already deleted?

The delete action is idempotent, so Notis simply reports nothing to remove and moves on without an error for you to chase.

Can I keep completed events for a record instead?

Yes. Instead of deleting, ask Notis to move done tasks to an archive calendar so your primary view stays clean.

Does it only trigger on the status field?

You scope this in the prompt, telling Notis to act only when the status becomes done or cancelled.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Google Calendar. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Google Calendar actions

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Insert Calendar into List

Inserts an existing calendar into the user's calendar list.

ActionInstant

Comment Created

Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.

TriggerInstant

Update Calendar List Entry

Updates an existing entry on the user\'s calendar list.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Delete Calendar

Deletes a secondary calendar. use calendars.clear for clearing all events on primary calendars.

ActionInstant

Database Created

Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.

TriggerInstant

Update Calendar

Updates metadata for a calendar.

ActionInstant

Data Source Created

Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.

TriggerInstant

Clear Calendar

Clears a primary calendar. this operation deletes all events associated with the primary calendar of an account.

ActionInstant

Data Source Schema Updated

Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.

TriggerInstant

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

ActionInstant

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

TriggerPolling

Delete event

Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.

ActionInstant

Page Added to Page

Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.

TriggerPolling

Create a calendar

Creates a new, empty google calendar with the specified title (summary).

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Notion and Google Calendar. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
