With the current “send meeting request”, the invitation I get includes a link to “Add to calendar” or an ICS file.

I was expecting an invitation where I could click Yes or No to accept, like in this example:

Is there a way to achieve this in Bubble or am I doing something wrong?

I’m not sure of a way to do this where the workflow is run without leaving the email interface.

The way I would approach is have the buttons link to a page on your site, with a respective parameter - so [https://mysite.com/mypage?response=yes](https://mysite.com/mypage?response=yes) vs. [https://mysite.com/mypage?response=no](https://mysite.com/mypage?response=no).

Then, on “mypage” - setup a page is loaded workflow to process the parameter.

Thanks, @sam.morgan.

It’s a good workaround!

When you say “without leaving the email interface”, what do you mean?

When you click “yes/no/maybe” in a google calendar invite, I believe it updates your “attending” status to that event without even leaving the email interface that you are in.

I am not sure this is possible in Bubble with the native sendgrid/postmark integration - I believe you’d need custom code that connects to your Bubble app’s API.
