This integration allows you to manage reminders of upcoming events in Google Calendar.

Being in the Console section, go to Integrations and click "Connect":

After clicking on the button, you will be taken to the Google authorization page, where you will be asked to select an account for integration or sign in. Then click the "Allow" button:

After a successful connection, the connected account will be displayed in Smart Sender.

In the funnel, select the “Perform action > Create event in Google Calendar” block:

After that, a window will open where you need to specify:

  • the calendar to which the event will be added;

  • variable in which you want to store the value of the created event. This value is used to delete the event;

  • title, description, location;

  • time zone, start and end date of the event in YYYY-MM-DD H:M:S format;

  • event reminder;

  • email of event participants to send notifications.

You can specify data as a static value

Or select variables

Previously, in the funnel, using the “Perform action > Update variable” block, you need to write this data, for example:

To delete an event in the calendar, use the block “Perform action > Delete event from Google Calendar”:

In order for this action to be executed, at the stage of creating an event, you must save the value of the created event to a variable:

These string type variables must first be created in the Variables section.
