Overview
Use the Google Calendar trigger to launch automations whenever calendar events change. Common use cases include briefing a team before a meeting, notifying stakeholders when a critical event is cancelled, or summarizing daily schedules.Make sure Google Calendar is connected in Tools & Integrations and enabled for the deployment you want to automate.
Enabling the Google Calendar Trigger
- Open your deployment in CrewAI AMP
- Go to the Triggers tab
- Locate Google Calendar and switch the toggle to enable

Example: Summarize meeting details
The snippet below mirrors thecalendar-event-crew.py
example in the trigger repository. It parses the payload, analyses the attendees and timing, and produces a meeting brief for downstream tools.
crewai_trigger_payload
exactly as it is delivered by the trigger so the crew can extract the proper fields.
Testando Localmente
Teste sua integração de trigger do Google Calendar localmente usando a CLI da CrewAI:crewai triggers run
executará sua crew com um payload completo do Calendar, permitindo que você teste sua lógica de parsing antes do deployment.
Use
crewai triggers run google_calendar/event_changed
(não crewai run
) para simular execução de trigger durante o desenvolvimento. Após o deployment, sua crew receberá automaticamente o payload do trigger.Monitoring Executions
The Executions list in the deployment dashboard tracks every triggered run and surfaces payload metadata, output summaries, and errors.
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the correct Google account is connected and the trigger is enabled
- Teste localmente com
crewai triggers run google_calendar/event_changed
para ver a estrutura exata do payload - Confirm your workflow handles all-day events (payloads use
start.date
andend.date
instead of timestamps) - Check execution logs if reminders or attendee arrays are missing—calendar permissions can limit fields in the payload
- Lembre-se: use
crewai triggers run
(nãocrewai run
) para simular execução de trigger
