Trigger

Calendar Event Changes

Action

Get Bonsai Cluster Details

Why this helps

Cancellation often removes the only calendar link between a work item and its cluster context.

  • Preserve context for rescheduling
  • Reduce rediscovery work
  • Keep cancelled work understandable

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Bonsai in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Cancelled calendar cluster record.
  • 3Tell Notis to handle deleted infrastructure events by retrieving the named Bonsai cluster details and summarizing context useful for future rescheduling.
  • 4Choose Calendar Event Changes as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one deleted event.

Questions about this workflow

What if the deleted event had no cluster slug?

Notis should record that the cluster reference was missing.

Does it recreate the event?

No. It preserves a context report only.
