Frequently Asked Questions about Google Calendar + Trello 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 Trello
How do I integrate Google Calendar with Trello?
We offer a seamless integration where you can set up automated workflows, called Zaps, to connect Google Calendar and Trello. To do this, you'll need to create a Zap that uses Google Calendar as a trigger, such as a new event being created, which in turn adds a card to a specified Trello board.
Can I create Trello cards from Google Calendar events?
Yes, you can set up a Zap where the trigger is the creation of a new event on your Google Calendar. This trigger will then prompt an action that creates a new card on your preferred Trello board with details from the calendar event.
Is it possible to update Trello cards automatically when an event is updated in Google Calendar?
We support this functionality by setting up a Zap with the 'Event Updated' trigger from Google Calendar. Actions can be tailored in Trello to update specific cards based on changes detected in your calendar events.
What happens if I delete an event in Google Calendar? Can it be reflected in Trello?
While deletion of calendar events isn't directly reflected as an action in Trello automatically through our standard integrations, you can set other triggers and actions around updates or creations for efficient workflow management.
How often do the integrations between Google Calendar and Trello run?
By default, our integrations check for new data every 5-15 minutes depending on your plan. This means any changes or triggers set will execute the corresponding actions within this timeframe.
Can I use filters when integrating Google Calendar with Trello?
Yes, our platform allows you to use filters to ensure that only specific types of events or details are transferred between Google Calendar and Trello. For example, you can filter events by keywords or specific calendar colors before they trigger actions in Trello.
Are there any limitations on how many Zaps I can create between Google Calendar and Trello?
The number of Zaps you can create depends on your current plan. Each Zap consists of one trigger and one or more actions. You’ll need to consider your account’s task limit accordingly when automating processes across these platforms.
