How this automation works

Create Google Calendar events from upcoming entries in a Basecamp schedule. When you enter the Location area you set, the Applet asks Basecamp for upcoming entries from the schedule you choose and adds them as detailed events to Google Calendar. Keep your calendar aligned with your team's Basecamp schedule when you arrive, ideal for on-site planning and reminders.
