Schedule Patch Tuesday Reviews → Generate Reports → Email Stakeholders
Automate monthly Patch Tuesday planning by scheduling calendar events, generating patch assessment reports, and distributing them to IT stakeholders for review and approval.
Workflow Steps
Google Calendar
Schedule recurring patch review meetings
Create recurring calendar events for the second Tuesday of each month (Patch Tuesday) with automated invites to IT team members, including preparation reminders 3 days prior.
Notion
Generate patch assessment templates
Set up a Notion database template that automatically creates patch review documents with sections for vulnerability assessment, system impact analysis, testing requirements, and rollback plans.
Zapier
Trigger report creation from calendar events
Connect Google Calendar to Notion via Zapier so that when Patch Tuesday events approach, new assessment documents are automatically created in Notion with current month/year populated.
Gmail
Email reports to stakeholders
Use Zapier to automatically email completed patch assessment reports from Notion to department heads and change management boards 24 hours before the scheduled maintenance window.
