Reminders

Regardless of the reminders your source events may have, the target events created by a ChronoLink connection do not have any reminders by default. This also means that any "default reminder" settings in Microsoft Outlook or Google Calendar are not applied.

However, by adding the following transformers to your connection, you can set up the reminders you need. Pick one of the examples below and adjust as needed:

Distinguish all-day and regular events
[
  {
    "type": "if",// (1)!
    "condition": {
      "type": "isallday"// (2)!
    },
    "then": {
      "type": "reminderset",// (3)!
      "at": "09:00",
      "daysBefore": 1
    },
    "else": {
      "type": "reminderset",// (4)!
      "minutes": 10
    }
  }
]
  1. For details on this transformer, see if.
  2. For details on this condition, see isallday.
  3. For details on this transformer, see reminderset.
  4. For details on this transformer, see reminderset.
Same reminder for all events
[
  {
    "type": "reminderset",// (1)!
    "minutes": 10
  }
]
  1. For details, see reminderset.

No same-day reminders with Google

When writing all-day events to Google, time-of-day reminders set for the same day ("daysBefore": 0) will be ignored. Google supports setting same-day reminders only in their own apps.
