Get Event

The Get Event action loads one event by its Google Calendar event ID. Use it when a workflow already has an event identifier and needs current event details, attendees, links, or ownership information.

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
Third-party account	Google account	Yes	Account used to read the event.
Event ID	String	Yes	Google’s identifier for the event.
Calendar ID	String	No	Calendar containing the event. Defaults to `primary`.

Event ID is available from Create Event and from each item returned by List Events.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Summary	String	Event title.
Description	String	Event description, when present.
Location	String	Event location, when present.
Start	Date	Event start.
End	Date	Event end.
Is All Day?	Boolean	Whether Google represents the event without a start date-time.
Status	String	Google status such as `confirmed`, `tentative`, or `cancelled`.
Event Link	String	Link that opens the event in Google Calendar.
Meeting Link	String	Google Meet or Hangout link, when present.
Attendees	List of strings	Attendee email addresses.
Creator	String	Event creator’s email address, when available.
Organizer	String	Event organizer’s email address, when available.

Some event fields may be empty because Google did not provide them. All-day events still return Start and End as dates and set Is All Day? to true.

Example: send an event reminder

Pass a previously stored event ID to Get Event, then build the reminder from the returned Summary, Start, Meeting Link, and Event Link. Empty meeting links can be omitted when the event has no online meeting.

Troubleshooting

The event cannot be found

Event IDs are resolved inside a calendar. Supply the same Calendar ID that contains the event; leaving it blank searches the primary calendar.

Meeting Link is empty

Google only returns this value when the event has an associated Google Meet or Hangout link.
