Zapier App For Any Calendar

I've long been impressed by what can be achieved thanks to Zapier, and decided to try supercharging the calendar triggers using the Cronofy calendar API to see how it could be made even better.

I've long been impressed by what can be achieved thanks to Zapier, and decided to try supercharging the calendar triggers using the Cronofy calendar API to see how it could be made even better.

The problems

As great as Zapier is, it has three main problems when you use the service as-is for calendars:

  1. You have to set up different Zaps for different calendar accounts.
  2. Microsoft Live and Apple aren't supported.
  3. There are no triggers for when events are deleted.

So we've fixed all those things using the Cronofy API.

The solution: Zapier calendar integration

In preview today is the Cronofy Calendar API Zapier App. With it you can set up triggers when 'Events are Created' and 'Deleted'. This is true across all of your calendar accounts, one calendar, or just selected calendars - the choice is yours.Here's a quick screenshot to show it in action:

It's very simple to use and you can of course 'Create Events' in response to any of the existing Zapier Triggers.

So if you want stay on top of changes to team calendars, track Trello tasks in your calendar, auto generate an Evernote Note with a reminder for every meeting...or any other of the multitude of calendar use cases on Zapier, it's now possible. For any and every calendar service. With triggers for deleted events. Job done.

We love showing the power of Cronofy in action, and now you can use it to make your life and scheduling tasks easier. There's no need to compromise on your tools and services - just add Cronofy.
