Automatically add travel time blockers to calendar using Google Directions API

# Automatically add Travel time blockers before Appointments This bot automatically adds Travel time blockers to your calendar, so you never come late to an appointment again. ## How it works * **Trigger**: The workflow is initiated daily at 7 AM by a "Schedule Trigger". * **AI Agent**: An "AI Agent" node orchestrates the main logic. * **Fetch events**: It uses the `get_calendar_events` tool to retrieve all events scheduled for the current day. * **Identify events with location**: It then filters these events to identify those that have a specified location. * **Check for existing travel time Blockers**: For each event with a location, it checks if a Travel time blocker already exists. Events that *do not* have such a blocker are marked for processing. * **Calculate travel time**: Using the `Google Directions API` it determines how lot it takes to get to the location of the event. The starting location is by default your **Home Address**, unless there is a previous event within 2 hours before the event, in which case it will use the location of that previous event. * **Create Travel time blocker**: Finally, it uses the `create_calendar_event` tool to create the Travel time blocker with a duration equal to the calculated travel time + 10 minutes for buffer. ![image.png](fileId:1896) ## Set up steps 1.
