Frequently Asked Questions about Google Calendar + Strava integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Calendar and Strava

How can I automatically add my Strava activities to my Google Calendar?

To automatically add your Strava activities to Google Calendar, you can use our integration platform. Set a trigger for when a new activity is recorded in Strava, and an action to create an event in Google Calendar.

Can I set up notifications for upcoming events from Google Calendar based on my Strava schedule?

Yes, we allow you to create a trigger in Google Calendar for upcoming events, which can then send notifications or take actions based on your preferences.

Is it possible to sync only specific types of activities from Strava to Google Calendar?

You can filter the trigger so that only specific types of activities from Strava, such as cycling or running, are added to your Google Calendar. This customization ensures only relevant events are synced.

How do I manage time zone differences between Strava activities and my Google Calendar events?

Our system accounts for time zone differences by adjusting the time of the event as it gets added to your Google Calendar, ensuring consistency across platforms.

What happens if I delete an activity in Strava? Will it be removed from my Google Calendar too?

Currently, the deletion of an activity in Strava won't automatically remove it from your Google Calendar. You may need to manually delete calendar events created through previous triggers.

Can I integrate other data fields from Strava into my calendar events?

Yes, additional data fields like duration, distance, or heart rate can be mapped into the event details section of your calendar entry during setup.

Does it support bi-directional synchronization between Google Calendar and Strava?

Bi-directional synchronization isn't supported at this time. Currently, actions are triggered by new activities in Strava that result in corresponding entries being made on your calendar.
