I’d like that anytime there’s an event in my Google Calendar called “EVENT X”, an email is sent from my Gmail account to “xxxx@gmail.com”, with the following text “Hi, here you have the table: [TABLE]”. I want to take the [TABLE] data from a Google Sheet where Zapier will always find updated data in cells P39:T43.
Can you please help me?

Assuming you’re keeping the same sheet and range for these emails, this will work for you!
In Google Sheets, highlight the range you want to include in the Zap then right click → View more cell actions → Get link to this range
Create a new Zap with the New Event Matching Search Google Calendar trigger
Set up the trigger to search for the Event Name in question
Hey @Troy Tessalone , thanks for your response. Can you clarify how can I be more specific in my request? I believed that I explained everything with enough details, but probably I’m missing something. Can you help me understand which additional elements would be helpful?
this is the screenshot of the GSheet sheet. I’d love to copy the [P49:T54] table into an email and send the email to a specific address. The trigger of this email sent should be a recurrent GCalendar event, that occurs every month on the 27th and is called “Reminder A”. Which are the Zap steps I should follow? @Troy Tessalone thank you!
Hey @simplifywork thank you! I feel I’m very near to the solution.
Step 2 seems to be incorrect: I already have the events in calendar, I just want to trigger the Zap when the event is about to start. The event is a recurring event that occurs every month in a specific day and always has the same name event “Reminder A”. Can you please help me setting this trigger up?

Great! Good news @IDontWannaCode : if my last reply got you close, then all you need to do is use the Event Start in Google Calendar trigger. This lets you select how long before an event you want the trigger to happen and lets you search for event name.
If you swap in that trigger it should work. Let me know if it still isn’t working though!
