Project Starts → Calendar Gets Structured Immediately
Your project management tool creates a new project via webhook. Notis automatically blocks time for research, design, build, testing, and launch phases right on your calendar.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Quick Add Event
Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.
Why this helps
Projects often lack explicit calendar time, leading to context-switching and rushed work. Neurodivergent founders benefit hugely from pre-planned time blocks, but setting them up manually creates friction that delays starting projects.
- Projects start with structure built-in
- Calendar protected from the moment a project launches
- Reduces mid-project context-switching
- Ensures enough time is actually allocated
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar to Notis.
- 2Set up the Notis webhook endpoint (you'll get a unique URL).
- 3Create an automation: 'Project Kickoff Trigger', Trigger set to 'Notis Webhook'.
- 4Tell Notis: 'When a project webhook arrives, extract project name, scope, and deadline. Create calendar events for each phase: Research (40%), Design (20%), Build (30%), Testing (5%), Launch (5%), each with appropriate duration based on the deadline.'
- 5Configure your project tool to send project creation data to the Notis webhook URL.
- 6Test by creating a project in your tool and verify calendar blocks appear.
Questions about this workflow
Can I customize the phases or percentages?
Yes, absolutely. Tell Notis which phases matter for your work and how much time each should get.
What if the webhook doesn't include a deadline?
You can configure Notis to ask for it, or to use a default (e.g., 'assume a 30-day project').
Does it account for existing calendar commitments?
Yes, Notis can find gaps in your existing calendar and schedule phases into available slots.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Whatsapp to Google Calendar. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Whatsapp triggers
Google Calendar actions
Message Status Updated
Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
