Stay On Top of Cancellations Without Constant Monitoring
When a calendar event gets cancelled, Notis removes it from your active list and logs the cancellation instantly. You'll always know what meetings fell through.
Trigger
Event Canceled or Deleted
Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.
Action
Batch Clear Spreadsheet Values
Tool to clear one or more ranges of values from a spreadsheet. use when you need to remove data from specific cells or ranges while keeping formatting and other properties intact.
Why this helps
Cancelled meetings can disappear silently from your calendar, leaving you confused about whether a meeting is still happening or already off. Tracking cancellations across overlapping calendars is tedious and error-prone.
- Instant notification of any cancelled meeting
- Automatic removal from your active schedule list
- Historical log of all cancellations for pattern spotting
- Reduces confusion about whether a meeting is still on
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Google Sheets to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a calendar event is deleted or cancelled, remove it from my active meetings sheet and add a record to my cancellation log with the date, time, and event title'
- 3Set up two sheets: one for active meetings and one for cancellation history
- 4Select your notification channel (Slack, email, WhatsApp)
- 5Do a test run by cancelling an upcoming event on your calendar
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis notify me immediately when a meeting is cancelled?
Yes, Notis will trigger the workflow and post a notification to your chosen channel the moment an event is cancelled.
Can I keep cancelled events in my tracking sheet instead of removing them?
Absolutely. Just adjust your Notis prompt to 'log to cancellation sheet but keep in active tracking' or customize however you prefer.
What if someone deletes an event by mistake—can I recover it?
Notis logs the cancellation details to your sheet. While Notis can't restore the calendar event itself, your logged data preserves the meeting info for your records.
Does this work for recurring event cancellations?
Yes. If a recurring event instance or entire series is cancelled, Notis will log which instance(s) were cancelled and when.
