About

This trigger will fire when a specific calendar event starts/ends.

Note that this trigger normally only fires on 5 minute boundaries, so if you have an event that starts between the boundaries, it may fire a few minutes later.

Supported configurations

  • Event starts / Event ends
Defines whether the event will start at the beginning of the event or at the end of the event.
  • Calendar
Choose the account where the event is located, you can also select the category, e.g. birthdays, family, holidays in mexico.
  • Availability
It starts only if you are free/busy or any.
  • Title (Optional)
The event must have this title.
  • Event detail (Optional)
The event must have these details/description.
  • Enable regular expression matching
Regular expression matching (or regex matching) is a technique for finding patterns within text using a specialized syntax known as regular expressions. It's a powerful tool for text processing and pattern recognition.
  • Case insensitive
It will ignore the use of upper and lower case in title and detail.
  • Ignore all day events
Events defined as full day will be ignored by the trigger.
  • Check in advance
Instead of triggering at the exact moment the calendar event triggers, it will check for it (for example) 2 hours in advance.  This way, you can receive alerts in advance about a specific calendar event

Use negative value

Use negative value (trigger x time after the event)
  • Use alarm
Use this option if the trigger time is not accurate (and you need it) e.g. for high importance events it is recommended to use alarm.
