Problem with "Google Calendar: Search and Delete an Event" automation

R.Barona

I have a workflow that allows me to create and edit Google Calendar events using a custom Event ID. These actions work as expected; however, I encounter an issue when attempting to delete those same events using the "Google Calendar: Search and Delete Event" function.

I specify the same Event ID as the "q" parameter (as shown in Picture 1 & Picture 2). The process runs and returns a "Successful" status, yet the event does not actually get deleted from the corresponding calendar.

Note: I have already verified that the request is targeting the correct user's calendar.

Oh, I see, sorry about that! The previous example wasn't valid because I had manually deleted the event while testing.

To provide a better demonstration, I have now created a new test case (Picture 1), where I:

1️⃣ Create a new event.
2️⃣ Edit the same event.
3️⃣ Attempt to delete the event.


After running these steps, I can confirm that the event still remains on the calendar (Picture 2), proving that the deletion did not take effect.

In the 'Search and Delete Event' action step, you need to search for the event using its name instead of its ID. This should resolve the issue you are encountering.

If you want the 'Delete Event' action step to be added to the Google Calendar application in Pabbly Connect, you can submit your request on our dedicated platform:

Our integrations team will look into your request and, if possible, add the desired action event to Pabbly Connect.

In the meantime, you can try executing this endpoint using the 'Custom API Request' action event.
