Why this helps

Calendar commitments and build preparation often live in separate systems.

  • Align builds with release milestones
  • Reduce forgotten preparations
  • Keep calendar-driven work moving

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Codemagic in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to start a Codemagic build when a new calendar event clearly identifies an app, workflow, and branch.
  • 3Select New Calendar Event as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real release event.

Questions about this workflow

What details belong in the event?
