I like to create out-of-office events in Google Calendar based on approved out-of-office for my my personal account in BambooHR.
I like to create the event in Google Calendar as an event of type outOfOffice
(see Google Calendar API at
https://developers.google.com/calendar/api/v3/reference/events#eventType). I expect this to enable/trigger Google Calendar features such as automatically displaying the out-of-office status in Google Mail and Google Chat, and automatically decline new events.
In Zapier, I have a working Zap to create regular events in Google Calendar based on approved out-of-office in BambooHR.
Are you aware if it is possible to create a new Google Calendar event with field eventType
set to outOfOffice
? If this is possible in Zapier, I would love to learn how to :-)
