Quick Add Event
Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.
Why this helps
A small follow-up can slip when turning a clear intention into a calendar entry takes too many steps.
- Create a basic event from natural language.
- Reduce friction between planning a follow-up and putting it on the calendar.
- Use webhook requests from an Attio process to start the action.

- 3Describe in one instruction how to turn the supplied follow-up text into a basic calendar event.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
