Use this to create a vacation lighting schedule in conjunction with another of my recipes called "Trigger Lights Off with Google Calendar Event". Create the calendar events easily with the Do Note called "Quickly create events in Google Calendar". Just type or say "Turn lights on at 11pm on July 25th", or whatever time and date is desired. Lights will actually come on about 15 minutes after the event.
If
Event from search starts
This Trigger fires a set number of minutes before the starting time of an event on your Calendar that contains a specific keyword or phrase in the event’s Title, Description, or Location. Ingredient will be based on the zone set in Google.
