Question

Unable to directly pass existing Meet URL to Google Calendar event.

I’m trying to create a Google Calendar meeting and pass an existing Meet URL/meeting id.  When I select “yes” to Add Conferencing in the “Create Detailed Event in Google Calendar” it creates a new Meet meeting ID/url.  I have the option to add custom, but Google Calendar is not seeing the value I’m passing as a Meet meeting.  

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @dianadiana 

To help us have more context, post screenshots with how your Zap steps are outlined and configured.

Under “Add Conferencing” I’ve tried the following:

  • Yes
  • No
  • Custom (full Meet URL)
  • Custom (Meet meeting ID)

Help article about using dropdown fields with dynamic variables: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496241696141-Add-custom-values-to-dropdown-menu-fields-in-Zaps

 

The Add Conferencing field expects certain values as shows in the dropdown list options.
