Google Calendar integration with Trail
How to Create Trail tasks from new Google Calendar events
This integration starts when a new event is added in Google Calendar. It prompts a task in Trail to warn teams of the event and get preparations underway, e.g. adjusting the rota and ordering extra stock. It then waits for the day of the event to prompt any tasks that need doing on that day.
