is there a way to check for google calendar events between a specific timeframe? for example show me events between 06:00 and 17:00?

Hey @aristosv

Could you please elaborate more about your usecase once and also tell us what trigger event you are using?

 

[aristosv]

the trigger event is google calendar, and it checks for new events. If an event is found, it will send an SMS as a reminder.

My questions is,

1. if one of my clients creates an event 1 month the past (March), will the trigger consider it as new events also because it was just added to the calendar?
2. if one of my clients creates an event scheduled in 6 months in the future (October), will the trigger find it today? How far in the future does it check?
3. if one of my clients schedules an event that starts in 1 minute, will the trigger find it and send an SMS reminder? Or 5 or 10 minutes must pass before a new event is found? How frequently does it check?

Google Calendar trigger is a polling-based trigger that will receive the latest event created in your Calendar. While in the live execution the trigger event is polling-based, so it will take up to 10 mins for it to be approached on Pabbly.

3. if one of my clients schedules an event that starts in 1 minute, will the trigger find it and send an SMS reminder? Or 5 or 10 minutes must pass before a new event is found? How frequently does it check?
