Google Calendar and Twilio integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Google Calendar and Twilio and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Productivity, Communication, and Development workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Google Calendar and Twilio

  • 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.

Automate Patient Journey with GPT-4, Twilio & Slack Notifications

How It Works ⚙️ This workflow is a comprehensive, AI-powered system that acts as a virtual patient assistant for clinics. It automates the entire patient journey from appointment confirmation to post-procedure follow-up. Appointment Trigger: The workflow starts when a new event is created in your Google Calendar for a patient appointment. AI-Powered Education: The new appointment is sent to an OpenAI (GPT-4) node, which acts as a virtual clinic assistant. It instantly generates a personalized pre-procedure guide based on the appointment's details. Automated Communication: The workflow then uses Twilio to send this AI-generated guide directly to the patient via SMS or WhatsApp, ensuring they are well-prepared for their appointment. Post-Procedure Follow-up: After the appointment ends, a Wait node pauses the workflow for a set period. It then sends a personalized follow-up message—also generated by OpenAI—to the patient, encouraging them to provide feedback. Staff Notification: A Slack notification is sent to the team once a follow-up message has been dispatched, keeping everyone informed and ready to act on incoming feedback. How to Set Up 🛠️ Import the Workflow: Copy the provided workflow JSON and import it into your n8n instance. Configure Credentials: Google Calendar: Add your OAuth2 credential. OpenAI: Add your API Key. Twilio: Add your API credentials. Slack: Add your Bot Token credential. Customize Workflow Nodes: Node 1 (Google Calendar Trigger): Select your clinic's booking calendar. Node 2 & 5 (OpenAI): You can customize the prompts to better match your clinic's tone and specific procedures. Node 3 & 6 (Twilio): Replace YOUR_TWILIO_NUMBER with your Twilio number and ensure you can extract the patient's phone number from your calendar events (e.g., from the event description). Node 7 (Slack): Replace YOUR_SLACK_CHANNEL_ID with the ID of your team's feedback or operations channel. Save & Activate: Once all settings and credentials are configured, save the workflow and click the "Inactive" toggle in the top-right corner to make it live.

Automated Client Journey Appointment Reminders & Follow-ups with Twilio

How It Works ⚙️ This workflow is a comprehensive, AI-powered system that acts as a virtual client relationship manager for any appointment-based business. It handles the entire client journey—from appointment booking to follow-up and re-engagement—all on autopilot. Appointment Trigger: The workflow starts when a new event is created in your Google Calendar. Client Data Management: It queries your client CRM database (Airtable or Google Sheets) to check if the client's email exists, preparing to send a personalized message. Dynamic Reminders: An If node splits the workflow. It sends a personalized welcome message for new clients and a standard reminder for returning clients, drastically reducing no-shows. Post-Appointment Follow-up: A Wait node pauses the workflow until after the appointment ends. It then sends a personalized "thank you" message via Twilio with a link to a review or survey. Re-engagement Loop: A separate Cron trigger runs weekly, automatically identifying clients who haven't rebooked in a set period (e.g., 30 days) and sends them a personalized offer to encourage them to return. Data Logging: It automatically logs all client data and engagement actions into a central database like Airtable or Google Sheets, creating a real-time dashboard for your business. How to Set Up 🛠️ Import the Workflow: Copy the provided workflow JSON and import it into your n8n instance. Configure Credentials: Google Calendar: Add your OAuth2 credential. Twilio: Add your API credentials. Google Sheets / Airtable: Add your credentials for your chosen CRM. Customize Workflow Nodes: Node 1 (Google Calendar Trigger): Select your Google Calendar credential and the calendar you use for bookings. Node 2 (Google Sheets / Airtable): Connect to your client CRM. Adjust the filter to search by the client's email from the calendar event. Node 4 & 5 (Twilio Reminders): Replace YOUR_TWILIO_NUMBER with your Twilio number. Customize the message body to fit your business. Node 6 (Wait): Adjust the Wait Duration if you want to send the follow-up message at a different time after the appointment. Node 7 (Twilio Follow-up): Replace the placeholder [LINK TO YOUR REVIEW/SURVEY PAGE] with your actual link. Nodes 8, 9, 10 (Re-engagement Loop): This is an optional, high-value part of the workflow. Configure the Cron node to run on your desired schedule. Adjust the filter in the Find Clients node to your specific re-engagement criteria (e.g., last visit date is older than 30 days). Save & Activate: Once all settings and credentials are configured, save the workflow and click the "Inactive" toggle in the top-right corner to make it live.
