1.1 Workflow description

Title
Reduce meeting no-shows with Gemini AI, email & WhatsApp reminders for Calendly
Workflow name
Reduce meeting no-shows with Gemini AI, email & WhatsApp reminders for Calendly

How it works:

This n8n workflow automates communication with meeting invitees to decrease no-show rates by sending timely email and WhatsApp reminders, and a clarification request if more information is needed to prepare the meeting.

Step-by-step:

The workflow is triggered by an incoming email notification from Calendly about a newly scheduled meeting.

  • It uses AI to extract key meeting data from the email content.
  • It checks if the invitee didn't provide sufficient information, and, if there is a need for more information, sends a clarification request email.
  • It calculates the waiting time required for the 24-hour and 1-hour reminders.
  • It uses an If node to determine the correct waiting path based on the meeting time.
  • It uses Wait nodes for timing the reminders correctly.
  • Finally, it sends a reminder email and a WhatsApp reminder before the meeting.

Customization Options:

  • Replace Google Gemini with your preferred LLM model (though Gemini works on the free tier).
  • Tailor email and WhatsApp messages to speak your brand's language.
  • Replace Twillio node to WhatsApp node to be a completly free usage flow.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
