Timing issue: Creating timeblock appointment in Google Calendar after oncehub booking

Hi ​@NickiS 

Removing the leading extra / in the Start Date & Time field input.

​@NickiS 

Also, the mapped variables values for Start/End Date & Time have time ranges rather than just a single timestamp.

So you will need to add Zap steps to parse out the start time and end time from the variable value.

Try these options:

• Check if there is a different variable you can map from OnceHub
• Formatter - Date & Time

• AI by Zapier - Analyze and Return Data

Thanks ​@Troy Tessalone ,

I see the / in the example I provided above, thanks for pointing that out. It’s no longer showing in my configuration. The timing is still not working (just tested again with 2:30pm on the 23rd and the follow up meeting is now 12:30pm on the 25th). 

Regarding the second part of your recommendations, I tested out the Formatter but as it adds another level to the Zap I don’t believe I can do that unless I have a paid license, is that correct? I’m currently trying to get the free version to work. From what I’ve read I thought that the modifier I’ve added to the end of the variables should work - the +30m should mean that the follow-up meeting would start 30 minutes after the original booking time, and the +60 should mean that the follow-up meeting ends 60 minutes after the original booking time. Is that correct, or am I missing something there?

I don’t see any other options I could use for oncehub. 

Thanks again for the advice!

Take a look at the screenshot below.

You have the same variable mapped fro both Start Date & Time as well as End Date and Time.

Notice the end of the value for the variable shows this: ...:30PM - 03:00PM

That means the actual value of the variable is not a timestamp, rather it’s a text string that has a date (e.g. Tue, Jul 15, 2025) plus a time range (start time - end time).

So you need to add Zap steps to first parse the variable value to get the different parts to use:

• date
• start time
• end time

Then map those variables into the correct field.

Sharing these options again...
