Make absence eligibility changes easier to review
When eligibility changes, get a draft that makes the update visible and identifies any missing context.
Trigger
Worker Eligible Absence Type Changed
Triggers when a worker becomes eligible or ineligible for an absence type. This trigger monitors the list of eligible absence types for a specific worker and detects when new absence types are added (worker becomes eligible) or when absence types are removed (worker becomes ineligible). Uses snapshot-based diffing to compare the list of absence type IDs between polls. Note: Due to Workday security permissions, this endpoint typically only allows access to the authenticated user's own data.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Eligibility changes can be hard to catch if someone must repeatedly check the worker's absence options.
- Surface eligibility changes for review
- Reduce repeat checks for absence updates
- Flag missing details instead of guessing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Workday and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: draft a concise notice of the absence type eligibility change using returned details and flag anything the reviewer needs to confirm.
- 4Pick the Workday Worker Eligible Absence Type Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real eligibility change and review the draft.
Questions about this workflow
Will the email explain why eligibility changed?
Only if Workday returns a reason. Otherwise the draft should state that the reason is unavailable.
Can it monitor several workers?
The trigger is for a specific worker. Set up the trigger for the worker you need to monitor.
