■Overview
When organizing a large number of events in Google Calendar, deleting them in bulk manually can be time-consuming and carries the risk of errors. With this workflow, you can compare events against a list compiled in Google Sheets and automatically delete only the events that meet your criteria in bulk. Reduce manual effort and errors while streamlining Google Calendar management.
■Recommended for
- Those who regularly organize Google Calendar events and find bulk deletion time-consuming
- Those who want to delete specific calendar events based on a list managed in Google Sheets
- Those who want to prevent deletion errors caused by manual calendar operations and improve operational accuracy
■Benefits of using this template
- Events are automatically deleted based on a Google Sheets list, reducing the time spent manually deleting events in bulk from Google Calendar.
- Because the system processes events accurately based on specified conditions, it helps prevent human errors such as missed deletions and accidental deletions.
■Flowbot overview
- First, connect Google Sheets and Google Calendar with Yoom.
- This workflow is started manually, so no trigger configuration is required.
- Set up Google Calendar's "Get a list of events" operation to retrieve information about the target events.
- Next, retrieve records from Google Sheets within "Repeat processing" and compare them with calendar events.
- If the conditions are met in the "Branch" step, run Google Calendar's "Delete event" action.
- Finally, use Google Sheets' "Update record" action to record that the event has been deleted.
* "Trigger": An action that starts a flow. "Operation": An action that processes tasks within a flow after the trigger starts it.
■Customization points for this workflow
- In Google Calendar's "Get a list of events" action, specify the Calendar ID for the calendar from which you want to retrieve events.
- In each Google Sheets action, specify the Spreadsheet ID containing the list of events to delete and the relevant sheet name (tab name).
■Notes
- Connect both Google Calendar and Google Sheets with Yoom.
- The "Branch" and "Repeat the same process" actions are available on the Personal plan and above. On the Free plan, operations and Data Connect configured in your Flowbot will result in errors.
- Paid plans, including the Personal plan, offer a two-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and features (operations) that are otherwise restricted. For details, see the Pricing Plans page.
