Google Calendar Agenda Emailer

Every night (or whenever) it sends an email with tomorrow's schedule using Google App scripts. The email looks something like:

09:30 - 10:00 in Meeting Room Fido
	Cadence Check In
10:00 - 11:00 in The Lounge
	Coffee Chat
10:00 - 10:25 in Team Area
	Stand Up
13:30 - 14:30 in Main Conference Room
	[Optional] Product Review
17:15 - 18:15
	Child Care

I don't usually check my work calendar/email once I'm home.

Installation

  1. Log into the google account that your calendar is attached to
  2. Visit https://www.google.com/script/start/
  3. Click 'Start Scripting'
  4. Paste in the javascript file from this repo And name the script something helpful. It'll be in your Google Drive once you save it.
  5. Go to File -> Project Properties -> Script Properties and add a property named MAILTO with the value of the email address you'd like to use.
  6. Test it out by going to Run -> getEventsAndMail.

If it all works well, you can set up your time based trigger via Resources -> Current Project's Triggers. If you want to have it send daily, choose:

  1. getEventsAndMail
  2. time-driven
  3. Day timer
  4. The hour you'd like to recieve your email. Typically it happens at the very beginning of the time range.

If it doesn't all work well, I might be able to help. It's also imperfect, so please improve and share ๐Ÿ‘

FAQ

Didn't you know that Google Calendar already has a Daily Agenda option?

I do. But it sends out at 5am, which (imho) is a pretty terrible time to remind anyone of anything. And! It'll only send to the email address that is associated with the calendar.

Isn't this just copying a feature from Donna?

Yep! I missed it when they shut down.

google-agenda-email's Issues

Multiple calendar accounts agenda

Would be great if this script could be expanded to capture events from separate Google calendar account (I have 3 Google accounts) and send a single agenda. Is that doable?
