This meetup will walk you through how to automatically send Google Calendar invites whenever someone submits a form. If you’ve ever used Google Forms to collect registrations, bookings, or meeting requests, you’ll know the next step—manually adding each event to your calendar—can quickly become a chore. This session will show you how to skip all that with a bit of smart automation using Google Apps Script.

We’ll start by showing how Google Forms, Sheets, and Calendar can work together. You’ll learn how to write a simple Apps Script that listens for new form submissions, pulls the details from the response (like name, date, and email), and instantly sends a calendar invite to the right people. It’s a hands-on session, so we’ll go through the process step-by-step—from setting up the script trigger to customizing the event details and email messages.

This meetup is perfect for anyone who manages bookings, interviews, workshops, or appointments and wants to make the process smoother. You don’t need to be an experienced coder—just a bit of curiosity and a Google account.

By the end, you’ll have your own working automation that turns every new form response into a scheduled event on your calendar, complete with automatic invites and notifications. It’s a small change that can save you a lot of time and keep everything organized without lifting a finger.
