Question

Finding and Updating specific existing Google Calendar Event

Hey everyone, first post here… 

I want to write details into a specific, existing Google Calendar event. 

I used Zapier to push the event ID and emails from it to Clay. 

Then I do stuff with that email (enrich Person, find their LinkedIn URL and a few details from LI)

Then look up that clay-row (which now contains enriched info) from Zapier 

Then push this enriched info back into the Google Cal event. 

I can’t get Zapier look for the Event ID and update that in Google Calendar. 

Hope I described this ok, any help appreciated.

Hi @Andreas Wernicke 

If you have the GCal Event ID, then use that in the Zap action: GCal - Update Event
