Hi all,

 

I’m trying to add a comma delimited list of email address of an unknown size to the attendee list of created detailed event in google calendar.

 

It appears that the attendees parameter does not accept a list for create detailed event.  Do I need to create the event and then use add attendees to get all the attendees included?

Hi there @Rinvelt,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

I did some digging into our notes, and it seems like:

You can't add a list of attendees with the Create detailed event action. The action asks for each attendee in a different field and you can't use a comma separate list or line items.

Workaround

Create the event then use the Add Attendee/s action, which can handle both comma separated lists and line-items Add attendee action

Hopefully, this helps.
