Feature - Before Google Calendar Event Starts
Status: Closed · Asked by aristosv on · 0 views
Any considerations on adding this option to "Google Calendar: Event Started" trigger?
Hey @aristosv
As of now, the feature is not available on the platform, but you can refer to the following video tutorial for the workaround which might help you out.
The video suggests that I should use "Get All Events" option, and then use the iterator. The problem with the iterator is that it can only process the first 500 records in the calendar, which is a problem for any of my clients with more than 500 events in their calendars.
Any other workaround I can use?
Also, are there any plans on adding the "Time Before" feature I mentioned?
This might work.
Use Scheduler as trigger and then use Google Calendar action called - Search Events (Advanced) to get only tomorrow events. That will be less than 500 and then you can use iterator to set reminders for those.
can you elaborate on what should be defined on these fields? I entered a date to find events for, but I get an error.
For the search term, it should be the date you are looking for. If you want it to be dynamic (i.e. change every day) I've used a Date/Time Formatter before the Search Events step to find the date:
