Organize Events from Slack with AI, Google Calendar & RSVPs

This n8n workflow revolutionizes event organization by monitoring a designated Slack channel for messages reacted with 📅. Upon detection, it forwards the conversation to an AI agent powered by OpenAI GPT, which intelligently parses the natural language content to extract key details like event title, date, time, and location.

The AI leverages integrated tools: it queries Google Maps for precise location addresses and then creates a fully formed Google Calendar event invite, including title, description, and location. A link to the event is posted back in Slack for easy access. This setup ensures accuracy even from casual chat phrasing, saving manual entry time.

Post-creation, the workflow polls the Slack message for ✅ reactions as RSVPs. It dynamically adds reactors as attendees to the calendar event and removes those who retract their reaction, keeping the guest list current without extra effort. Ideal for teams coordinating meetings, outings, or social events.

Benefits include seamless team collaboration, reduced administrative overhead, and error-free scheduling. Use cases span remote teams planning standups, sales RSVPs for demos, or community events. Customizable for other platforms like Discord or calendars like Outlook.
