How to sync Calendly events with Google Calendar
Add the Calendly "Event scheduled" trigger
Every playbook starts with a trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and runs your playbook in response.
Click "Add trigger" and select "Event scheduled" under Calendly. Then, select the relevant details. This trigger will automatically detect all the new event scheduled in Calendly to sync with Google Calendar.
If this is your first time using a Calendly integration in Relay, you'll be prompted to connect your Calendly account.
Add the Google Calendar "Create event" automation
Integrate the Google Calendar automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of new events in Google Calendar for newly scheduled events in Calendly. Add a new step and select "Create event" from the list of Google Calendar automations.
Connect Google Calendar to Relay if you haven't already, then fill out the mandatory and relevant details. You can reference fields from Calendly to automatically pass along the right data.
Turn on the playbook
Activating your playbook is the final step in your automation process. Once turned on, it will respond to the new scheduled event in Calendly by creating a new event in Google Calendar without manual intervention.
To enable your playbook, click the toggle button located in the header. It is advisable to perform a test run of your playbook beforehand to ensure all steps work seamlessly together and reminders are being sent correctly.
