Automates the synchronization of Discord scheduled events to Google Calendar, ensuring your calendar is always up-to-date.
About This Workflow
This workflow leverages n8n to bridge the gap between Discord's scheduled events and Google Calendar. It triggers on a set schedule, fetches events from a specified Discord guild, and then intelligently creates or updates corresponding events in your Google Calendar. The process ensures that only new or recently modified events are processed, maintaining data integrity.
Key Features
- Automated Scheduling: Runs on a configurable schedule.
- Discord Event Retrieval: Fetches scheduled events from a specified Discord guild using the Discord API.
- Intelligent Sync: Checks for existing Google Calendar events based on Discord event IDs to determine if an event needs to be created or updated.

- Configurable Guild ID: Easily set the target Discord guild ID for event fetching.
