Why this helps
Deleted calendar plans often leave old schedules active in the network policy system.
- Remove obsolete schedules
- Reduce lingering access windows
- Create an auditable cleanup trail
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Outlook and Control D once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named Deleted event schedule cleanup.
- 3Tell Notis to delete a Control D schedule only when the deleted event clearly includes its profile ID and schedule ID.
- 4Pick Calendar Event Changes as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one deleted policy event.
Questions about this workflow
Is deletion automatic for every deleted event?
No. Restrict the automation to events explicitly marked as Control D policy windows.
What if the schedule is already gone?
The run report can note that no deletion was needed or that the identifier was not found.
