Add the Google Calendar 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 Google Calendar. Then, select the calendar and the necessary details. If this is your first time using a Google Calendar integration in Relay, you'll be prompted to connect your Google Calendar account.

Now, every time an event is scheduled in Google Calendar, your playbook will run automatically.

Add the Coda "Add row to table" automation

Now you can add a new row to a table in Coda for each scheduled event. Add a new step and select "Add row to table" from the list of Coda automations.

Connect Coda to Relay if you haven't already, then fill out the necessary details. You can reference fields from Google Calendar to automatically pass along the right data.
