First, log in to your Pabbly Connect account. If you don’t have one, you can create a free account that offers 100 automation tasks monthly.

Once logged in, you will be directed to your dashboard. To create a new workflow, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow appropriately, such as ‘Add Google Calendar Events as Meetings in GoToMeeting,’ and click the ‘Create’ button. This sets the stage for your automation process.

2. Choosing Google Calendar as the Trigger App in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will configure the trigger for your workflow. Select ‘Google Calendar’ as the trigger application from the options provided in Pabbly Connect. The trigger event will be set to ‘New Event,’ which activates the workflow whenever a new event is created in Google Calendar.

• Search for ‘Google Calendar’ in the app selection.
• Select the trigger event as ‘New Event’.
• Connect your Google Calendar by clicking ‘Connect’ and follow the prompts.

After connecting, select the specific calendar you want to monitor for new events. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to fetch details of the most recent event created in your Google Calendar.

3. Formatting Date and Time for GoToMeeting

Once you have the event details, the next step is to format the date and time correctly for GoToMeeting. Use the Date Time Formatter feature in Pabbly Connect to convert the time received from Google Calendar into UTC format, which is required by GoToMeeting.

• Select the Date Time Formatter from the action options.
• Choose ‘Format Date with Time Zone’ as the action event.
• Map the start date and time received from the previous step.

Repeat the process for the end date and time to ensure both are formatted in UTC. This step is crucial for the accurate scheduling of meetings in GoToMeeting.

4. Creating a Meeting in GoToMeeting Using Pabbly Connect

Now that you have the formatted start and end times, it’s time to create the meeting in GoToMeeting. In Pabbly Connect, add a new action step and select ‘GoToMeeting’ as the application.

Choose ‘Create Meeting’ as the action event. Connect your GoToMeeting account. Map the subject, start time, and end time using the data fetched earlier.

Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the meeting. If successful, you will see the newly created meeting in your GoToMeeting account, reflecting the details from the Google Calendar event.
