About this Applet
Post Beds24 booking details to Slack when a Google Calendar event starts. When any event starts on Google Calendar, the applet asks Beds24 for a booking that matches the event title (or the guest name, email, or booking reference you configure) and posts the booking summary to Slack. Great for surfacing reservation status, guest contact, stay dates, and room info in Slack for check-ins and reminders. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
