Set temporary travel availability from Telegram
Keep your calendar realistic while traveling by describing the dates and availability you want Notis to add in Cal.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.
Action
Create user availability schedule
Creates a cal.com user availability schedule, defining its name, timezone, weekly recurring availability, and specific date overrides; if `isdefault` is true, this schedule replaces any existing default and applies to event types not linked to a specific schedule.
Why this helps
Travel changes are easy to forget to reflect in booking availability, leading to inconvenient meeting requests.
- Capture travel availability while planning in chat
- Set date-specific availability overrides
- Avoid accepting meetings during unavailable travel periods
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Cal to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or tell Notis to create a Cal schedule when you send a travel availability request.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction with the travel dates, timezone, and available windows to include in the schedule.
- 4Choose the Telegram message trigger, select a channel for run reports, and test with a future travel period you can review.
Questions about this workflow
Can the schedule include one-off date changes?
Yes. Cal availability schedules support specific date overrides.
Will this alter my default availability?
It depends on whether the schedule is set as default. State your intent clearly and review the result.
