My workflow "Google Calendar -->email and sms 2025" is not longer triggering. It was working fine and then suddenly stopped triggering based on new events being added or updated on the calendar.

Hi @apremierdj,

Please establish a new connection with your Google Calendar account and see if that fixes your issue.

Hello @apremierdj,

Thank you for your patience. We would like to inform you that the polling triggers for Google Calendar have been deprecated, and a new trigger named “New or Updated Event (Instant)” has been introduced by our team. This is a post-webhook-based action.

For now, we have already set up this trigger for you in the workflow (URL mentioned above). Please note:

• There is an action called “Get All Events” in the workflow, which you can delete.
• You can then add the required actions to complete your workflow.
• Kindly ensure you do not make any changes to the trigger itself—just add the necessary steps/actions.

Our team will soon be releasing tutorials demonstrating how to configure this trigger in detail. In the meantime, please use the setup as it is, and it should work fine for your use case.

Try this out and let us know how it goes.

This is not pulling in events at all. Can you please help me. The workflow is completely broken now.

 

[apremierdj]

If I understand correctly, the new “New or Updated Event (Instant)” is basically just a trigger to show SOMETHING changed

Now I need to use a Get All Events and try to find the changed event.

When I use Get All Events and sort "Order By" Last Modification Time, that means it should give me the last modified event, right? But it continues to give me a the very first event ever created

The trigger event in this workflow seems to be executing correctly. You can use the credentials from the trigger step of this workflow in your original workflow, or simply copy the action steps from your original workflow into this workflow, remap the data and use this workflow for your use case.

You do receive the event information in your trigger step as well. Is there any specific information you are looking for that is not present in the trigger step?

 

[apremierdj]

The goal here is to obtain the event details that was added or updated.
I've moved the credentials from the Pabbly test work flow to my existing workflow and it shows errors in both Step 1 & Step 2

Can you please help.

 

[ArshilAhmad]

Please use the Google Calendar #2 connection in your trigger step, and then try to capture a new event

Also, remove the 'a' at the end of the ID field.

 

[apremierdj]

I have done as instructed and returns several errors. Not sure what they mean: channelIdNotUnique, Channel id asgdiuasdfa not unique etc.

Also, on step 2 I am still not getting the last modified event to show.

Hello @apremierdj,

We have correctly added the trigger under your main workflow. We request you to kindly create an event with all the required details specified in your action and then check if it is captured in the history. If yes, please follow these steps:

1. Go to the trigger, click the refresh icon, and select the latest response from the dropdown.
2. Open each step, verify that everything is mapped correctly, and then click the Save & Send Test Request button in sequence.

Following this process should make your workflow function correctly.

Note: To set up the trigger in this workflow, we created a test event in your calendar named calendly.
