I’ve followed the YouTube video of how to build an ai appointment schedule chatbot with google calendar and it comes up like this any idea why? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1108396291060408352/1484241048552210432/IMG_0364.jpg?ex=69bd82b1&is=69bc3131&hm=0bee496083025619db7f3e1c78e6e8f949a56e8a28ef7e80058e6755883d7e79&

Hey @white-mouse-44452 taking a look now
Does the event not get created? Also have you tried on webchat instead of the emulator?
w
No it doesn’t create it for some reason
l
From my experience this error normally comes with your wording in the ai task cards
I can take a look at your bot can you paste the url?
w
How do I do that?
Sorry I’m new to this hahaha
l
the url on top
of your studio
you can just copy paste it and i'll take the BOT ID
l
perfect
w
this one?
l
Yes exactly im already on your bot will get back to you.
its working good on my end?
was the event created on your calendar can you check?
w
ill check yes
but it should come up with the time as well
with the confirmation
its in my calender yes
have you changed anything?
l
nothing
w
thats strange
dont know why it comes up with an error for me
l
can you test on your end first
does it work?
like try again new conversation
w
i cant because you are connected
l
one moment
go ahead.
w
its fine now for some reason hahahaha
but it doesnt give the confirmation info
Your appointment is confirmed Date: January 12, 2026 Time: 3:00 PM - 3:30 PM (EST) You'll receive a calendar notification with the details.
i want it to come back with something like that
ohh i didnt see the #example output!
i'll go bother some1 be right back.
w
ytes its so it has an example
ok no worries
Update: the wrong variable was being tagged here
A variable needed to be linked in the create event card, i used that one to link in the ai task input
To summarize - workflow.testing stored value for Create Event card - worfklow.testing input for AI confirmedeventstring card
w
ohhhh
so its all fixed now?
and also i think i have programed it to est time and i want it to be the time in spain as i am located in spain
l
you have to mess around with the AI task instructions until you get the desired result!
w
ive tried to change it but it keeps on coming up an hour later and it gets confused i want it at 11-12 in the morning and it saves it at 00:00-1:00 hahaha https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1484241048795611297/1484307882668326952/Captura_de_pantalla_2026-03-19_224807.png?ex=69bdc0f0&is=69bc6f70&hm=0b69093685fc312b506814ba7b312f0a6da440e18a73a906196f2d7077a896d7&
why is it saying +1:00
w
no idea
l
its adding an hour
maybe tell it to remove an hour in the AI task for fun
w
its changing completly the time
its making it 13 hours afterwods hahaha
and its using am and pm and i want it to be on a 24 hour clock
im trying everthing and nothing is working is driving me mental hahahaha
l
Can you copy paste your instructions?
w
which ones?
l
I'll check your bot directly! its okay.
We do have an event in office now so there might be a little delay!
w
sorry for so much hassle hahaha
okay no problem let me know
see if this gets sorted so then i can try doing one for whatsapp
Have you had a chance to have a look at it?
l
Will be taking a look again soon!
w
Okay, I’ve also tried to set up so it’s senda and email of the confirmación but i think I’ve done it wrong
hello
any updates?
l
Is your bot still adding one hour to the reservations?
w
yes
l
Did you change something @white-mouse-44452
Can no longer get to the reservations now - do you mind fixing it back to how it was?
w
i didnt change anything
l
The reservation is no longer being created
It used to
Let me know.
I will go back into your bot when that is fixed @white-mouse-44452 and try to figure out the time situation
w
done
fixed
l
Okay - give me some time i'll try finally figuring this out - Hopefully 😅
Wait @white-mouse-44452
is this is not good?
w
let me check
no because it saves it at 1-2 in the morning
not in the afternoon
l
is UTC-6
the correct time zone?
@white-mouse-44452
w
no
i asked an ai task to display the time zone, it seems to be displaying in utc-6
what is the correct time zone you need?
w
Peninsular Spain generally uses CET (UTC+01:00) or CEST (UTC+02:00) during summer
I did a small workaround
does this output look good?
Can you test and let me know @white-mouse-44452
w
yes that is much better
l
😄
Test once on your end
and let me know!
w
also to connect whatsapp do i have to have a verified account?
l
Yes you do @white-mouse-44452
Heres our whatsapp Guide
w
is there not a way to connect it without that
l
Unfortunately not
w
because my idea was to use the bot for local companies
but they wont be veryfied
itll be whatsapp buisness
l
They can create a whatsapp business account no?
w
yes
is that enough to connect it with whatsapp?
l
This is all you need:
v
l
Are you trying to install the integration?
w
im trying to connect whatsapp
l
Will get back
I think its just a standard rate limit. You need to wait and try again later. @white-mouse-44452
w
what do you mean by a standard rate limit
l
As in there were too many failed sign in attempts, and its blocking you from trying again
w
ive tried again and its still coming up with the same
l
@white-mouse-44452
I just saw this
This might be the issue.
Will confirm now!
w
okay, if that is the case how do i solve it?
l
You might have to purchase more messages however let me confirm please
for the time being let me stay on your bot too!
I'll be right back 😄
w
okay no problem
l
So it was indeed your usage limit!
You would need to purchase mroe messages and events
I tested and it let me connect via oauth after adding more events temporarily
w
okay, to connect through oauth what details do i need?
l
You need to sign in with your meta buisness account now

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs6dIxgEKoY▾

Heres a quick tutorial
w
okay im going to purchase it and let you know
l
Sounds good!

ive connected my number
but how do i check its working?
l
You have to wait till meta verifies!
w
?
l
Meta will review your business name and your personal name before you can start sending messages. • Reviews usually take up to 1 business day • During review, you can send 5 test messages every 24 hours • You’ll receive an email once the review is complete
You have to wait first
w
but do i connect the number to whatsapp on my phone?
l
You need to have a whatsapp buisness account @white-mouse-44452
its not for your personal phone number
From the docs: The WhatsApp integration works only with a WhatsApp Business account. Personal WhatsApp accounts are not supported because the integration relies on the Meta Business API, which requires a verified business phone number and a Facebook Business page.
