Summary

Google has discontinued SMS notifications for Google Calendar events, but Zapier can help users keep these notifications flowing by creating automated workflows called Zaps that send information from one app to another, including sending an SMS message when a Google Calendar event is about to begin. New users of Zapier can create their own Zaps without coding knowledge and start with templates if needed. To set up the desired functionality, users need to select Google Calendar as the trigger app, choose the Event Start trigger event, customize the calendar and notification settings, and connect a Twilio account to send SMS messages. Users can then customize their SMS alert message and test it before beginning to use the Zap.
