Prepare return planning guidance for new leave records
Give teams a consistent starting point when leave begins.
Trigger
Worker Leave of Absence Created
Triggers when a new leave of absence record is created for a worker. This trigger monitors a specific worker's leaves of absence and detects when new leave records appear (e.g., when a leave is initiated/recorded). Uses snapshot-based diffing to compare leave record IDs between polls.
Action
GraphQL Content API Persisted Query
Tool to execute a persisted GraphQL query via its SHA256 hash. Use after registering a query hash to run cached queries by hash. On first call include full query text; thereafter invoke with only hash and variables.
Why this helps
New leave records can trigger planning work before anyone finds the current approved guidance.
- Find approved guidance quickly
- Standardize early planning
- Reduce repeated searches
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Workday and Contentful graphql once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation for new leave planning context.
- 3Tell Notis to run the registered Contentful query for return, coverage, and manager guidance related to the leave.
- 4Pick the Worker Leave of Absence Created trigger and choose where reports go.
- 5Test with one real leave record.
Questions about this workflow
Does this infer a return date?
No. It uses the date details available in Workday and reports missing information.
Can the query be reused?
Yes. Persisted queries are designed for repeated execution by hash.

Get CMA Token
Tool to retrieve a Contentful Management API (CMA) access token. Use when making CMA calls to ensure valid authorization.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
GraphQL Content API Persisted Query
Tool to execute a persisted GraphQL query via its SHA256 hash. Use after registering a query hash to run cached queries by hash. On first call include full query text; thereafter invoke with only hash and variables.
Absence Balance Changed
Triggers when a worker's absence balance changes. This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence plan balance and detects any changes to the balance details including quantity available, effective date, position, or other related fields. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful changes.
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
Balance Details Changed
Triggers when details of a specific balance change (quantity, accruals, adjustments, etc.). This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence plan balance and detects any changes to the balance details including quantity available, effective date, position, or other related fields. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful field changes.
Interview Feedback Submitted or Updated
Triggers when interview feedback is submitted or updated for a specific interview. This trigger monitors a specific interview and fires when new feedback entries are detected or existing feedback is modified.
Job Posting Changed
Triggers when a specific job posting's details change (title, status, posting dates, location, etc.). This trigger monitors a single job posting and fires when any of its fields are modified.
Job Posting Questionnaire Changed
Triggers when a job posting's candidate questionnaire is added or changed. This trigger monitors a specific job posting's questionnaires and detects any changes including additions, removals, or modifications to questionnaires and questions. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful changes.
New Absence Balance
Triggers when a new absence balance record becomes available for a worker. This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence balances and detects when new balance records appear (e.g., a new plan/bucket becomes available). Uses snapshot-based diffing to compare balance record IDs between polls.
