Hi all, I want to create some recurring events from a calendar submission.

 

Objective

When someone submits a form on my site, I want to take the day/time that the form was submitted and create recurring events from the Monday following the form submission. 

 

Current Status

I used some date formatters and a lookup table to take the form submission date and create an event on the Monday following the form submission. I have been able to create a subsequent event using additional date formatters based on the original event.

 

Where I need help

Currently I am trying to automate the process of creating more subsequent events. I would like to just be able to create some kind of loop and specify the number of times to repeat in order to create 1 years worth of recurring events. For context, the recurrence will be weekly, biweekly, and monthly; I’m hoping that I can use the same solution for all and provide a different date formatter and number of loops for each case. 

 

Tools

Webflow: Form submissions

Airtable: Database for events

 

Thank you!

Hi @RobertN2186 

Good question.

Check out the Looping app: https://zapier.com/apps/looping/help

 


@Troy Tessalone, that makes for the reply 🙂

 

I tried to use the loop from line items but I couldn’t figure out what I needed to give it.

How would I configure the loop from number to do this?
