Why this helps

Planning reminders can be confusing when the date or timezone context is unclear.

  • Start a scheduled planning workflow with a clear date and time reference.
  • Avoid relying on an unstated timezone.
  • Use the result as a basis for a separate planning prompt.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the current date and time with your chosen timezone offset and use it as the date reference in its run report.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test one scheduled run and confirm the reported local time.

Questions about this workflow
