How to connect Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap
- Step 1: Create a new workflow
- Step 2: Add and configure nodes
- Step 3: Connect
- Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
- Step 5: Test and activate your workflow
Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step
In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.
Step 2: Add and configure Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap nodes
You can find Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.
Step 3: Connect Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap
A connection establishes a link between Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.
Step 4: Customize and extend your Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap integration
Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
Step 5: Test and activate your Google Calendar and OpenWeatherMap workflow
Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Google Calendar to OpenWeatherMap or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

Smart Break Recommendation System using Google Calendar, Weather Data, and GPT-4 to Slack
Who is this for
This workflow is perfect for busy professionals, consultants, and anyone who frequently travels between meetings. If you want to make the most of your free time between appointments and discover great nearby spots without manual searching, this template is for you.
What it does
This workflow automatically monitors your Google Calendar and identifies gaps between appointments. When it detects sufficient free time (configurable, default 30+ minutes), it calculates travel time to your next destination, checks the weather, and uses AI to recommend the top 3 spots to visit during your break. Recommendations are weather-aware: indoor spots like cafés in malls or stations for rainy days, and outdoor terraces or open-air venues for nice weather.
How it works
Schedule Trigger - Runs every 30 minutes to check your calendar
Fetch Data - Gets your next calendar event and user preferences from Notion
Calculate Gap Time - Determines available free time by subtracting travel time (via Google Maps) from time until your next appointment
Weather Check - Gets current weather at your destination using OpenWeatherMap
Smart Routing - Routes to indoor or outdoor spot search based on weather conditions
AI Recommendations - GPT-4.1-mini analyzes spots and generates personalized top 3 recommendations
Slack Notification - Sends a friendly message with recommendations to your Slack channel
Set up steps
Configure API Keys - Add your Google Maps, Google Places, and OpenWeatherMap API keys in the "Set Configuration" node
Connect Google Calendar - Set up OAuth connection and select your calendar
Set up Notion - Create a database for user preferences and add the database ID
Connect Slack - Set up OAuth and specify your notification channel
Connect OpenAI - Add your OpenAI API credentials
Customize - Adjust currentLocation and minGapTimeMinutes to your needs
Requirements
Google Cloud account with Maps and Places APIs enabled
OpenWeatherMap API key (free tier available)
Notion account with a preferences database
Slack workspace with bot permissions
OpenAI API key
How to customize
Change trigger frequency: Modify the Schedule Trigger interval
Adjust minimum gap time: Change minGapTimeMinutes in the configuration node
Modify search radius: Edit the radius parameter in the Places API calls (default: 1000m)
Customize spot types: Modify the type and keyword parameters in the HTTP Request nodes
Change AI model: Switch to a different OpenAI model in the AI node
Localize language: Update the AI prompt to generate responses in your preferred language
