Project settings become stale after planning decisions made in calendar meetings.

  • Keep project records accurate
  • Reduce post meeting admin
  • Make decisions visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Bugherd in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Planning decision sync.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the matching Bugherd project settings only when an Outlook calendar change contains an explicit approved decision.
  • 4Pick Calendar Event Changes as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one approved planning event update.

Questions about this workflow

How does it know a decision is approved?

Include approval language or a consistent marker in the calendar event and tell Notis to require it.

Can it avoid changing unrelated projects?

Yes. Tell Notis to update only the project clearly identified by the event details.
