Google Calendar

Run workflows when meetings start, end, or change

Google Calendar is the rare app where the timing of events is the whole point, and Tiny Command leans into that. Five triggers cover the calendar event lifecycle in real time: Event Created the moment a meeting is added, Event Started exactly when one begins, Event Ended exactly when one wraps, plus Event Updated and Event Cancelled for the messier cases. Combine those with seven actions (Create Event, Update Event, Delete Event, Get Event, List Events, List Calendars, and Quick Add Event for natural-language entries) and a workflow can run useful automation around any meeting: prep a brief 10 minutes before a Calendly booking starts, draft a follow-up email the moment a customer call ends, sync a moved event into HubSpot or Notion. Authorize once via Google OAuth. The connection covers every calendar your account has read or write access to, including delegated calendars.

Triggers

Workflows start when Google Calendar does.

5 real-time triggers, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Real-time · webhook-driven
Actions

Do anything Google Calendar can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Create EventCreates a new event on a Google Calendar with summary, description, start, end, attendees, location, conference link, and reminders. Standard write for piping booked meetings or scheduled tasks into Calendar.
Delete EventDeletes an event from a Google Calendar by ID. Pass sendUpdates=all to notify attendees of the cancellation; recoverable from Calendar trash.
Get EventRetrieves a specific event from a Google Calendar by ID with summary, description, start/end, attendees, conference link, and recurrence. The standard read after a trigger fires.
List CalendarsLists all calendars available to the authenticated user (primary, secondary, subscribed) with access role. Used to populate a calendar picker.
List EventsLists upcoming events from a Google Calendar with time filters (timeMin/timeMax) and query string. Used for daily-agenda emails, prep-doc generation, or scheduling assistants.
Quick Add EventCreates an event using natural language text (e.g., "Dinner with John tomorrow at 7pm"). Google parses the title, date, and time for you, making this great for chatbot or NLP-driven scheduling.
Update EventUpdates an existing event on a Google Calendar: summary, description, start/end, attendees, conference link. Only the fields you pass are changed; pass sendUpdates=all to notify attendees.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Google Calendar once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Google Calendar field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Google Calendar integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Google Calendar to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Google Calendar node, and click Connect. Authorize Google Calendar once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Google Calendar triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 5 real-time Google Calendar triggers, including "Event Cancelled", "New Event", "Event Ended". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Google Calendar.
What Google Calendar actions can I run from a workflow?
7 Google Calendar actions are available out of the box, covering calendar & scheduling operations like "Create Event". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Google Calendar integration real-time?
Yes. Event Cancelled and every other Google Calendar trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Google Calendar rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Google Calendar with Tiny Command?
No. Every Google Calendar trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Google Calendar API endpoint directly.
How much does the Google Calendar integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Google Calendar integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
