How hands-off: Assists you, you do the final step
Setup: An afternoon · about an afternoon
Works with: Cal.com, Google Sheets, HTTP Request, Code

Watch out for

Timezone mismatches between Cal.com and Google Sheets can cause interview times to appear off by several hours so always normalize timestamps to UTC before formatting.
Duplicate entries may occur if the webhook fires multiple times for a single event so implement idempotency checks using unique booking IDs.
Google Sheets API quotas are strict and large batches of cleanup operations can hit rate limits so process rows in small chunks with delays between requests.
Email matching logic might fail on typos or aliases causing missed syncs so add a fuzzy match fallback or manual review queue for low-confidence matches.
