The Google Calendar has a trigger that is “Event Start”. But I want the action to happen 75 minutes after the event starts. If I put -75 minutes, will it trigger at the correct time?

Hi
Welcome to the Community! 🎉
I believe this isn’t possible since the “Event Starts” trigger triggers when a specified amount of time before an event starts. I believe you can use Delay by Zapier as a workaround here.

Hey
How did you get on with Ken’s suggestion of using a Delay action for this—did that do the trick?

Yes! I set the trigger as 1 minute before the Google event starts, then delayed for 76 minutes. Works well. Thanks for following up
