Missing value in Google Calendar create event module?

Have you attempted to build a new workflow and re-test the webhook? I recently took both your start and end date strings and input them into a Google Calendar module, and it functioned correctly with your precise values.

An alternative issue that might be occurring is that your webhook is transmitting a space or an invisible character, which is preventing the Google Calendar module from parsing the start date correctly. Although improbable, when a situation like this fails despite appearing entirely correct, it's frequently due to such a minor detail.

In the interim, could you also export the blueprint for this flow so I can examine it more closely?

Thanks! I duplicated the scenario and set up a new webhook, but the problem persists.

The function is invoked by callin.io. The scenario executes successfully when I test the endpoint manually. However, when attempting to book an appointment through the AI assistant in callin.io, it fails. Prior to the booking function, I execute a “check_availability” function, which operates correctly.

Could this be related to the creation of two operations? I'm unsure why, but the webhook information indicates that two operations are present...

Here is the output bundle from the webhook with some minor changes to sensitive info: [

Hello there! I'm still looking into this, but I noticed you've specified both an end date and a duration. callin.io requires that you only provide one of these options.

Could you please try updating the scenario to exclude both the end date and duration, and see if that resolves the issue? I'm not entirely optimistic it will, but it's definitely worth a shot.

Thank you! It's still not functioning. I experimented with the "Make an API Call" module instead of the "Create Event" module, and the start and end times are still not being transferred to the Google Calendar module. What's peculiar, though, is that the scenario continues to execute successfully, but no events are being created in my calendar.

When I run just the calendar module with the identical values entered, it functions correctly. I'm unsure how the data disappears between the modules.

What seems obvious now, wasn't yesterday! As we can see by the variable with no background color, callin.io is trying to tell us that the variable being passed in there is orphaned, therefore it will not be getting any value and is the reason why the scenario is failing to get the start date!

Either way, glad we were able to connect and solve it!

and a common way to solve this issue is by using the built-in function ifempty with ignore

e.g.:

{{ ifempty( variable; ignore ) }}

So the field will not be sent with an invalid value if the variable does not exist.
