See your assigned work on your calendar
When someone assigns you a GitHub issue, Notis creates a calendar event immediately so your workload is always visible.
Trigger
New Issue Assigned to Me
Triggers when a new issue is assigned to the authenticated user. Fires an event for each GitHub issue that is newly assigned to the authenticated user. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues are emitted. Issues can optionally be filtered by labels and state. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, creator, repository details, and timestamps.
Action
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
Why this helps
You get assigned issues via GitHub notification, but they live in a separate tool. You check email or Slack, see 'assigned', but then context-switch back to your calendar to see if you have time. The issue notification disappears and you forget. Three days later someone asks 'did you see the issue I assigned?'
- See your full workload in one place—your calendar—instead of checking GitHub separately
- Prioritize assigned work by blocking calendar time when it arrives, not after you forget
- Reduce anxiety about missed assignments by having them permanently on your schedule
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Google Calendar to Notis
- 2Ask Notis: 'When I'm assigned a new GitHub issue, create a calendar event' or set this up in the Automations portal
- 3Give your automation a memorable name like 'My Issue Assignments'
- 4Choose your notification channel (Slack, email, or both)
- 5Assign yourself a test issue and confirm it appears on your calendar within seconds
Questions about this workflow
Does this include pull requests?
No, only issues. If you want PR assignments tracked separately, you can set up a different automation for that.
Can I filter by label or project?
Yes. Tell Notis 'only for issues labeled urgent' or 'only in the mobile-app repo' and it will filter automatically.
What time of day does the event appear?
The calendar event is created immediately when you're assigned. You can tell Notis to schedule it for a specific time, or it defaults to a placeholder for you to adjust manually.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Google Calendar. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Google Calendar actions
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Insert Calendar into List
Inserts an existing calendar into the user's calendar list.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Update Calendar List Entry
Updates an existing entry on the user\'s calendar list.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Delete Calendar
Deletes a secondary calendar. use calendars.clear for clearing all events on primary calendars.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Update Calendar
Updates metadata for a calendar.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Clear Calendar
Clears a primary calendar. this operation deletes all events associated with the primary calendar of an account.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Delete event
Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.
