Keep a calendar record of resolved work

When a GitHub issue closes, Notis adds a quick calendar note so you have a timestamped record of what got completed and when.

Trigger

Issue State / Properties Changed

Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.

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

Issues close but there's no audit trail of when they got done or by whom. You can't quickly recall what you shipped last month. Post-mortems and planning meetings require manually digging through closed issues. Your sense of progress disappears because there's no personal record of completions.

  • Build a personal record of completed work that you can review for confidence and planning
  • Enable quick audits by having all issue resolutions timestamped on your calendar
  • Reduce cognitive overhead of tracking progress by outsourcing it to a calendar log

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Google Calendar to Notis
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When an issue closes, add a quick note to my calendar' or set it up in Automations
  • 3Specify if you want notes for all issues or only those assigned to you
  • 4Choose your notification channel
  • 5Close a test issue and confirm it appears as a calendar entry

Questions about this workflow

Can I filter to only track certain issue types?

Yes. Tell Notis to track only bug fixes, features, or issues with specific labels.

Will the calendar entry include issue details?

Yes. Notis includes the issue number, title, and link so you can click through if you need more context.

Can I use this to build a timeline of shipped features?

Absolutely. This is perfect for that. You can later review your calendar to see everything you shipped and when.
