You can trigger flows on your calendar events, using the icalCalendar app. Setup First thing we need to do is to add your calendar to the app. You have the possibility to add one ore more calendars. IcalCalendar works with Apple, Outlook and Gmail calendars but in theory it should work with any pro…

Awesome! Thank you. It is working now :slight_smile:

Hi, I have the same problem again (I havn’t changed the setup since you did the bug fix). I can’t see the current event that is ongoing. [Screenshot 2023-10-20 at 12.00.11]

Just tested this on my Homey Pro 2023, and using a variable in the trigger card Event starts in X minute(s) works for me from both an advanced flow and a regular flow.

also works perfectly in timey: [image] Timey Make your time flows dynamic with variables

I have the same problem, and have done some research on this in recent weeks. I see that I often get the error message “TypeError: Cannot convert null value to object” when I try to open a flow on the phone app (android) that have a trigger with a variable. [Screenshot_20250124_103157_Homey] I s…
