Question

How do I send a Slack message every week with all of my colleagues events in our Google Calendar?


Hi everyone, I am trying to build a Zap to schedule a weekly message with my teams’ events for that week. The problem I encounter is that Zapier only pulls the first event in our calendar to send the message. I have seen some posts about pulling all of the events from our google calendar to a google sheet and then create the message from that google sheet but I haven’t been able to do that either. Is there any other way to do this? Has someone done this before? I also work with Asana if that is also an option we can look into. Thanks a lot!

Hi @Chava Molina 

You would likely have use the GCal API to pull multiple events for a provided query.

Hey @Troy Tessalone do you happen to have a deeper explanation on how to create it, I do not have experience working with APIs.

It requires an understanding of how to read and configure app API.
