How to connect Dropbox and Google Calendar

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Dropbox and Google Calendar nodes

You can find Dropbox and Google Calendar in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Dropbox and Google Calendar nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Dropbox and Google Calendar

A connection establishes a link between Dropbox and Google Calendar (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Dropbox and Google Calendar integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Dropbox and Google Calendar with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
