Using Google Calendar & Notion API to Sync Events/Tasks – Zapier Automations

Hi August! Thank you for the super detailed walk through, I found your insights very valuable and have many take aways from your video. One question that comes to mind; what are your top use cases for implementing this automation? I'd be curious to learn about the main benefits that you (or a member of the audience) have experienced from this setup and what problems it's help you solve. Appreciate any/all input! Thanks, Nico

Is it possible to use zapier to automate stuff happening inside of notion when something inside of notion changes?

Amazing August!

Great Video ! But did I get it right, that the update/change events option is only available with the paid membership of zapier, as I need a 3-step zap which is not available with the free plan ?

Hi, I don't know if anybody has had this issue but I cannot find the URL field in zapier. Can anyone help, please?

Hey August, firstly great video! This is the 3rd one I've watched in your series :) I'm having issues with integrating the do date and end date in Zapier. In your tutorial, you put just the start time and end time but now in Zapier, it wants to add the start and end time to the do date field and the same for the end time field, it only accepts when you add in the start and end time here. Not sure why but it just won't accept the way you've done it. I'm on a paid plan. Any thoughts or ideas on how to fix this? Thanks very much :)

Thanks for the great video, I was able to set this up and it worked great! Do you know if there is a way to select multiple Google accounts for the same Zap? Or would we need to setup these (3) zaps for each of the members on our team?

Do you record your videos with Loom?

Thanks for the info, it helped me create a nice automation. By the way, you can combine the first two zaps into one if you select the 'Create if item doesn't exist option' in the third step of the second zap because you update the item anyway in its the fourth step. This can help if you want to simplify things but if you want more control i'd leave them separate.

Hi, August! Very much enjoying your channel and your philosophy :) Calendar integration is very important to me and my functioning in the world. I really appreciate your thorough tutorial. My calendar have 3 types of events: New (Integration covered in this video), Reoccurring (Integration covered in the next video) and Pre-planned - events that are either ongoing (but not reoccurring) that span over a period of time eg an upcoming course dates, or any type of events that already exist in my calendar. How do you approach working with pre existing events? What is the most efficient way to integrate these types of events into Notion?

thanks ❤️

for some reason the update part doesnt seem to work anymore... at least for me it automatically turns off every time i publish it, and stays disabled

You can't do the 3 step zaps like 1. Calendar Updated 2. Find Notion Page 3. Update Notion page --- without a pro plan. Did this change or has it always been that way?

Hello! Could you please tell me where have you found this awesome block with shortcuts? I've checked your templates, but didn't found that. Thanks!

I tried the cancel function but i didn't do anything. 😅 I wonder what I did wrong with that. The delay in updating the database is also annoying

Can zapier be trusted ?

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your explanations

I've a calculated field as DateTime on my Notion but can't see it from Zapier. Do you have any idea how to solve this, please ?

Thanks

Amazing tutorial! You sir have just saved my life. Thank you so much!

I am following through your update zap using the same gCAL etc but every time I try I get a duplicate in Notion

Creating a recurring event in Google calendar only creates item in Notion for original event date. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this a limitation>
