Hi! 

 

I am looking to create a zap where when booking is made on OnceHub (The Trigger) it will take the start time of that event and add a 30 minute block before that event begins on Google Calendar.

 

The use case is to add a block for a technology check ahead of a product demonstration, which gives a team 30 minutes to make sure everything is set up and ready to go before the event starts.

 

I’ve tried to create something but I am unsure of how to find the start date/time and add a 30 minute block before it.

 

Thank you,

John

Hi @Johnmcbride1 

Good question.

You can add buffers in OnceHub:

Hi Troy,

 

Thanks for the quick response!

 

This is a fix from the booking perspective, however, we’d like an actual meeting to show up on the google calendar, preferably automatically.

 

Any advice?

 

Thanks,

John

Hi @Johnmcbride1 

One thing to keep in mind is how to handle canceled and rescheduled meetings, because that will leave an orphan time block on the calendar.
