Watch out for

Timezone mismatches can cause events to appear at wrong times so always explicitly define the timezone in both the input parsing and calendar creation steps.
Google Calendar API rate limits may block rapid requests add a small delay or implement retry logic if you are processing bulk bookings.
Double-booking conflicts occur if availability checks are not atomic so use the Google Calendar check node immediately before creating the event within the same workflow execution.
Meet link generation requires specific calendar settings enabled in your Google Workspace account verify this configuration beforehand to avoid missing video conferencing details.
