Overview

This is a simple method running Google Apps Script by the event notification from Google Calendar.

Description

There are several event triggers in Google Apps Script. Ref1, Ref2 There is an event trigger for Google Calendar. The official document says An installable calendar event trigger runs when a user's calendar events are updated—created, edited, or deleted.. Ref3 If I want to use the trigger when the event in the calendar is starts and finished, it is required to use Calendar API by preparing the URL for receiving from Google. Ref4, Ref5 Also, there is the method that the start time are retrieved from all event lists and run the script for each start time. But in this case, it is required to check new events and manage the time-driven triggers for running the script. I thought that those are the higher hurdle for me. So I thought a workaround.
