I am trying to use zapier to get a list of all my google calendar events for the day, then loop through them to send me a custom-formatted email. 

the first method i am attempting is to use the daily Agenda email from gcal as a trigger (New Email Matching Search in Gmail), which i can successfully extract all “iCalUID”s from. however, when i then attempt to pull in calendar data, i have discovered i must instead use the iCalUID to find the event, then find the event ID. 

however this results in me needing to use the Gcal API Request (Beta) zap, which basically obviates the need for the Agenda, and instead i can pull down a list of events directly. however i cannot seem to get that to fire correctly:

 

however when i look at the output, it appears the querystring is being ignored:

 

so question 1 - what am i doing wrong with this block?

and question 2 - does this logic seem sound?

so it’s working now, with no changes. i *think* the testing didn’t always actually fire each time, but now it is… can’t explain
