Find Calendar Events
Searches for the calendar events in your library that match the given criteria. Allows for sorting, changing the order, and limiting the number passed as a result.
Copy my availability
Asks you to pick a day, then calculates the time in between events and copies it so you can share it. Be sure to add filters for your specific calendars.
Actions Used
Get Details of Calendar Events
Extracts information from calendar events, including start date, end date, whether it’s an all day event, the calendar it belongs to, the location, whether it has alarms, the event duration, the organizer, the attendees, the URL, the title, the notes, & more.
Copy to Clipboard
Copies the result of the last action to the clipboard.
Repeat with Each
Takes a list of items as input, and runs the contained actions once for each item in the list.
If
Tests if a condition is true, and if so, runs the actions inside. Otherwise, the actions under “Otherwise” are run.
Adjust Date
Adds or subtracts an amount of time from the date passed into the action.
Get Dates from Input
Returns any dates found in the output from the previous action.
Add to Variable
Appends this action’s input to the specified variable, creating the variable if it does not exist.
This allows you to make a variable hold multiple items.
Set Variable
Sets the value of the specified variable to the input of this action.
Count
Counts the number of items, characters, words, sentences, or lines passed as input.
Note (from Apple, for real)
This is just like the Count in Sesame Street, but instead of a vampire, it’s a Shortcuts action.
Stop and Output
Stops execution of the current shortcut, and outputs content. This action is useful when:
• Running a shortcut from another shortcut (using the Run Shortcut action). The output will be used as the output of the Run Shortcut action.
• Running a shortcut from Quick Actions in Finder on macOS. The output will be saved as a file alongside the files selected in Finder.
• Running a shortcut from Services on macOS. The output will replace the selected content, if applicable.
• Or, when running a shortcut from another location that supports output, like the command-line or the Shortcuts URL scheme.
No more actions will be run after this action.
