What this workflow does
This workflow creates a Google Calendar event from a Gmail or Outlook thread using the agreed time and attendees. A finished run gives you a calendar event with invitations sent to everyone included.
The problem
Operations managers, sales teams, and recruiters often copy meeting details from email into Google Calendar by hand. They must find the final agreed time, add each attendee, and send the invitations.
The solution
The workflow reads the scheduling thread, identifies the agreed time and attendees, and prepares the Google Calendar event. After you approve it, the event is created and the invitations are sent.

Peter SchönHead of Business DevelopmentFrequently asked questions
How do I turn an email thread into a Google Calendar event?
Run this workflow on the relevant Gmail or Outlook thread. It reads the conversation, identifies the agreed time and attendees, and prepares the event in Google Calendar. Incredible asks before it creates the event and sends invitations.
Does the workflow invite everyone on the email thread?
Yes. The workflow adds everyone on the thread as an attendee and uses the time agreed to in the conversation. It asks for your approval before creating the event and sending the invitations.
Can this workflow read both Gmail and Outlook email threads?
The workflow can read the scheduling thread in Gmail or Outlook. It creates the resulting event in Google Calendar.
Do I need code or APIs to create calendar events from email threads?
No. Incredible is taught by recording a person doing the task, so there is nothing to code and no APIs to connect. It then repeats the recorded steps on demand.
What do I need to run this email-to-calendar workflow?
You need the Incredible desktop app for Mac or Windows and your own access to Gmail, Outlook, and Google Calendar. Incredible works through the browser you already use while you are signed in.
Is my Gmail, Outlook, or Google Calendar data used for training?
No. Customer data is not used to train Incredible.
Can the email-to-calendar steps be adjusted?
Incredible follows the process it was taught, using the same steps in the same order. To use a different process, teach the workflow the sequence you want it to follow.
