About This Workflow
This n8n workflow template streamlines the process of inviting attendees to your events. It begins with a manual trigger, allowing you to initiate the process on demand. The core functionality lies in generating an iCalendar (.ics) file with specific event details like title, start, and end times. This generated invite is then automatically attached to a personalized email, which is sent to your recipient. Perfect for community meetups, webinars, or any scheduled gathering, this workflow automates a crucial part of event management, saving you time and ensuring accuracy.
