Hey there
I found google calednar plugins that enable creating events in user’s calendar using API, but I don’t know how to generate a link for the meeting to put it in the “location” parameter, how can I do this?

The link is generated by the API call…you need to capture the response of the API call and use the link value provided by the API call

@boston85719 what API call shoud I make to generate this link and get it in the response of this call?

you are using the plugin, so I’m not sure how to do it with the plugin, but the plugin is basically just preconfigured api calls.

You’d use the create meeting api call

Try adding a workflow action after your plugin action and see what is returned when you use ‘result of step’ (whatever step your plugin action is)…might get the values from it.
