Create Event

The Create Event action adds a timed event to Google Calendar. It can set the event’s details, invite multiple attendees, and optionally send Google Calendar notifications.

Quick start

Connect Google Calendar

Choose a Google account with permission to create calendar events.

Describe the event

Set Summary, Starting At, Ending At, and Timezone. Add a description or location when they help attendees.

Add attendees

Add one Attendees item for each email address that should be invited.

Use the created event

Pass Event ID to later Calendar actions or send Event Link to a person who needs to open the event.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description

Example: schedule an approved request

Approved meeting request
  → Google Calendar: Check Availability
  → Google Calendar: Create Event
  → Email Event Link to the requester

Use the same start, end, Calendar ID, and timezone for the availability check and event creation so the event is written to the calendar you checked.

Troubleshooting

The event was created on the wrong calendar

Empty Calendar ID means the connected account’s primary calendar. Supply the target calendar ID for shared or secondary calendars.

An attendee value is rejected

Every attendee must be a valid email address. Remove names or surrounding text and pass only the email address.
