Ready-made Workflow

Email new Google Calendar events with Gmail

Send an email when a new event is added to your selected Google Calendar. Each message includes the event title, start, end and a direct calendar link. Connect Google Calendar, browse to the calendar to watch, connect Gmail and enter a fixed recipient address. Includes its own fictional Dresden planning example with German Unicode. Timed events preserve the original timestamps and timezone offsets; all-day events use dates, with an exclusive end date. The first poll establishes a baseline: create new events afterwards. Existing events, later edits and cancellations are not synchronized. This announces event creation rather than sending an upcoming-event reminder. Emails are plain text, sent from your connected Gmail account and visible in Sent. Descriptions, attendee addresses and attachments are not copied. The recipient can read the event title and times; opening the source link still requires calendar access. Gmail sending limits apply. Manual reruns or retries after ambiguous provider failures can resend a notification. Use your own email address for the first test.
