Set up the trigger
Add the trigger
Create a new Workflow with the New or Updated Google Calendar Event trigger, or change an existing Workflow’s trigger type.

Toggle trigger on new events only (optional)
Enable Trigger on new events only if you want the Workflow to run only for newly created events. When disabled, the Workflow also triggers for updated events.
