What recipe-create-events-from-sheet does

The skill reads the Events!A2:D range with gws sheets +read, then creates a calendar event for each row using gws calendar +insert. The example passes an event summary, start and end times, and attendee addresses.

It requires gws plus the gws-sheets and gws-calendar skills. Install it when you need to move a spreadsheet event list into Google Calendar; for a one-off event, creating it directly is simpler.

What it helps with

  • create Google Calendar events from spreadsheet rows
  • move the Events!A2:D range into a calendar
  • add listed attendees to calendar events

Example prompts for the agent

  • Read events from `Events!A2:D` and create them in Google Calendar.
  • Create a calendar event for each row in this sheet, including the listed attendees.
  • Move this event schedule from Google Sheets into Google Calendar.
