Decline a Cal booking with a review reason

Resolve unsuitable pending bookings with a consistent explanation.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Decline booking with reason

Declines a pending booking using its bookinguid, optionally with a reason; this action is irreversible and applies only to bookings awaiting confirmation.

Why this helps

Declines get delayed when reviewers must find the booking and retype the reason.

  • Resolve pending bookings faster
  • Preserve a clear decline reason
  • Reduce repeated calendar administration

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cal in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for reviewed booking declines.
  • 3Tell Notis to validate the request, then decline the pending booking with its reason.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook as the trigger.
  • 5Select a report channel and test with one reviewed request.

Questions about this workflow

Is declining reversible?

No. Declining a pending booking is irreversible, so require an explicit approval condition in the instruction.
