1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Eventbrite and Google Calendar Integration

To automate adding new events from Eventbrite to Google Calendar, we will use Pabbly Connect. First, access your Pabbly Connect dashboard after signing up for a free account. This platform allows you to set up an automation workflow that connects Eventbrite and Google Calendar seamlessly.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow something like ‘Eventbrite to Google Calendar’ and choose a folder for organization. This initial setup is crucial as it sets the stage for the automation process.

2. Configuring the Trigger Event in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will configure the trigger event using Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, select Eventbrite as your app, and choose ‘New Event Created’ as the trigger event. This means that every time a new event is created in Eventbrite, it will trigger the automation.

Next, you will need to connect your Eventbrite account. Click on ‘Connect’ and then select ‘Add New Connection’. You will be prompted to log into your Eventbrite account and allow permissions. Once connected, select your organization from the dropdown menu and click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to test the connection. This step ensures that Pabbly Connect can access your Eventbrite data.

• Select Eventbrite in the trigger window.
• Choose ‘New Event Created’ from the trigger event options.
• Connect your Eventbrite account and select your organization.

After saving, Pabbly Connect will wait for a response from Eventbrite, which indicates that the connection is successful and ready to receive event data.

3. Creating an Event in Eventbrite

Now, let’s create a new event in Eventbrite, which will trigger the automation in Pabbly Connect. Navigate to the Event section in your Eventbrite account and click on the ‘Create Event’ button. Fill in the necessary details such as event name, description, date, time, and location.

For example, you might create an event called ‘Music Concert’ with a date of March 31, 2024. Once you have entered all the details, click on ‘Save and Continue’. This action will send the event data back to Pabbly Connect, confirming that the event has been created.

• Enter the event name and details.
• Select the event date and time.
• Click on ‘Save and Continue’ to finalize the event creation.

After saving, return to your Pabbly Connect dashboard to see if the event details have been successfully captured in the trigger response.

4. Retrieving Event Details and Sending to Google Calendar

Once Pabbly Connect receives the event details, the next step is to retrieve specific information using the event ID. This involves adding an action step in Pabbly Connect. Choose Eventbrite again and select ‘Get Event’ as the action event.

Map the event ID extracted from the previous step to retrieve all necessary details like the event name, description, start and end times. This ensures that all relevant information is available for the next step where we will create the event in Google Calendar.

After mapping the event ID, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You should receive a response containing all the details of the event you created in Eventbrite, which will be used to create the Google Calendar event.

5. Creating an Event in Google Calendar Using Pabbly Connect

The final step is to create the event in Google Calendar using the details retrieved via Pabbly Connect. In the action step, select Google Calendar and choose ‘Create Event’ as the action event. Connect your Google Calendar account and select the calendar where you want to add the event.

Map the event details such as title, description, start time, and end time from the previous step. Once everything is mapped correctly, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This action will create the event in your Google Calendar with all the details you provided.

To verify, check your Google Calendar for the newly created event. You should see the event titled ‘Music Concert’ on March 31, 2024, with the correct time and description, confirming that the automation is working perfectly.
