Q & A
What is the purpose of the assistant named Amy in the script?
-Amy is a default assistant designed to help with executive tasks, managing calendars, contacts, CRMs, and finding relevant information. She is equipped with personalized data such as email addresses, phone numbers, company details, and default company address.
What is the main instruction for Amy and why is it important?
-The main instruction for Amy contains a lot of data connected to the user's personal and professional life. It is important because it provides Amy with the context and information needed to assist the user effectively without requiring the user to constantly provide these details.
What is a 'Snippet' in the context of the script?
-A 'Snippet' is a saved prompt that can be used to assist with specific tasks. In the script, it is used to help schedule meetings in Google Calendar by providing a structured format for event details.
Why is it necessary to select the correct model when creating a Snippet?
-Selecting the correct model ensures compatibility with the remote action that will trigger the Snippet. It is important for the proper functioning of the Snippet within the system.
What is a 'Vector database' mentioned in the script and how does it relate to Amy?
-A 'Vector database' is not explicitly defined in the script, but it is implied to be a separate system where more specific information about the user's needs, such as details about employees, will be stored and used by Amy without cluttering the main instruction.
What is the significance of the JSON format in the script?
-The JSON format is used to structure the data for the meeting scheduling Snippet. It ensures that the information is organized and can be easily parsed by the system to create events in Google Calendar.
What is a 'webhook' and how does it fit into the scenario described in the script?
-A 'webhook' is a way for an app to provide other applications with real-time information. In the script, it is used to get data from the assistant and send responses to configure the Google Calendar events.
What is the role of the 'Alice simple blueprint' in the script?
-The 'Alice simple blueprint' is a pre-configured set of modules that simplifies the process of setting up the scenario. It allows for a quick installation of base modules needed for the scenario to work.
Why is it important to check for conflicts before scheduling a new meeting?
-Checking for conflicts is important to ensure that the proposed meeting time does not overlap with existing appointments. This prevents double booking and helps maintain an accurate calendar.
How does the script handle errors during the meeting scheduling process?
-The script includes error handling by providing warnings and debugging information. If an error occurs, such as a missing end time, the script will notify the user and provide the necessary data to correct the issue.
What is the final step described in the script for ensuring a successful meeting scheduling?
-The final step is to test the scenario by running it and using the Snippet to schedule a meeting. If there are no conflicts and all data is correct, the meeting will be successfully created in the user's Google Calendar.

Transcripts
hello hello and welcome to the next one
now we're going to create something a
bit more advanced it will be a scenario
I will let us create new meetings and
I'm going to show you how to combine
assistants with Snippets so this is my
assistant it's my default assistant her
name is Amy and she helps me with some
executive tasks if I edit her I can see
that the main instruction for Amy is
quite big however it just contains a lot
of data that is connected to my self
like my email address my phone number my
various companies that I use and their
details my my default company address my
zoom link and also some information
about how to help me how to help uh
manage my calendars contacts crms find
relevant information and more this is
actually simplified version of this uh
because I have a lot more data for Amy
that I use but this is just to show you
an idea that you can provide some things
like this in the master prompt those are
public details it's not like my private
details are here uh those are you know
you can easily find everything in Google
but basically what I need Amy to help me
with is so that I don't have to provide
this all the time and she knows the
context she also uh can remind some
things so later on we're going to learn
how to give her some specific things
about let's say my employees or things
that I need to remember but these things
I do not put in the AM main instruction
I don't want to clut it rather I'll be
using Vector database but I'm going to
tell you about it in a separate uh video
now I have this General instruction that
I can save I've saved Amy and I want to
make a prompt a snippet on top of this
instruction that will help me schedule
my meetings in Google Calendar so what
I'm going to do is go here to Snippets
and just create new snippet this snippet
will have a name like
schedule
meetings it will be in category like
let's say
business also I'm going to select the
model it's going to be uh let's say four
turbo or three and a half turbo it's
important that you select 1106 version
uh or some other model if it doesn't
work just default to 1106 because then
uh we'll have the remote action that
will trigger here so instead of a rocket
we're going to have maybe robot as an
icon and now I have this prompt that
I've created and I'm going to paste it
here so answer with Json and nothing
more use the following format and we
have event and we have place we have
link description name surname email
phone and date so that's basically it
name of the place with the meeting uh
when the meeting is held if not provided
use my zoom link this is something that
I've added okay and now I'm going to add
this Json mode and remote action
obviously but we don't yet have web hook
URL so we have to go to make and in
make.com I've created a new scenario now
I'm going to click on this little three
dots and import a blueprint so I provide
you a blueprint that that will just let
you quickly uh install some base modules
it's called Alice simple blueprint and
I'm going to just save it and what you
have here is web hook that will get the
data from Alice and the response the
response that will configure later on
between those two bubbles we will set
all of our instructions before we do
please go to get data from Alice and
then I'm going to add a web hook here
we're going to add a web hook let's give
it a name of like the same we have here
but let's say first Alice and then
schedule meetings I'm going to actually
copy that and paste it in here as well
so I have Ali schedule meetings here and
there and here so it's easier to find it
now I've copied the web cook URL to my
clipboard and I can paste it in here as
a web hook URL okay save changes and our
scenario is ready we have to make sure
that in the assistant Amy has the access
has the access to this uh very snippet
so let's make sure we enable the snippet
for for Amy and now I can just start a
new conversation in the new conversation
I press forward slash and I look for
scheduled meetings press return to
accept it now the snippet is applied and
this little icon here helps me
understand that now I'm going to say
schedule
meeting with Greg I'm going to give my
email address uh for about marketing
strategy for
tomorrow uh maybe
1300 and before I send it I'm just going
to run this scenario once so that I can
get the data now let's send it and it's
important to do it first because we want
to get the data structure into the
scenario once we have it in place on
once we receive this data and she says
okay because we have response here that
just says okay we receive the data and
we have everything that we need here we
need to put it into uh Google module and
I'm going to right click on this little
dots to create a new module inside and
search for calendar and select Google
Calendar now I want to create an
event and select my um my
calendar my connection if you don't have
the connection you have to add it we're
going to add a detailed meeting and the
calendar ID I need to select my main
calendar as as the event name I'm going
to just set the event from here like
marketing strategy meeting it's not an
all day event so I'm going to set start
date and let me see how it works out I
have start date here but I don't really
have the end date let's see what we can
do with it later on but for now we don't
have the duration we want some Advanced
option though so if I show the advanced
option you'll see that we have a
description here that we can fill in
description is here location it's the
zoom link and please uh take a note of
of that that the zoom link was not
provided here neither is it in the
snippet it's not in the snippet so where
does it come from well it comes from the
general instruction for Amy she knows my
zoom link and she knows that she should
default to this Zoom link if it's not
provided so I'm going to set the link
here and um I'm going to set the
attendee as well so click on the plus
and then the name of the attendee is
Greg and his email is Greg at existence
so that's it and show me as busy blah
blah blah okay this is all good let's
save it by pressing okay I'm going to
just Auto align save the scenario and
I'm ready to test it once again so I'm
going to just run it once more and copy
this paste that I'm still in the snippet
because uh I didn't press Escape so I
will still use the snippet and there we
have two errors the first one is a
warning and the warning from web hook
like this it just means that well it it
it failed uh to get the response from
the web hook because the scenario didn't
went through and it stopped here because
there's an error in Google Calendar I
did not reach this last bubble and I and
I couldn't send the response that's why
he says oh sorry there's there's some
kind of error here and Alice also helps
me debug it and in order to do it she
just gives me the Json that that she has
created in case I want to check it so
event is marketting strategy meeting
place a zoom link is so everything looks
really good in here so what is the
problem let's click on this little
bubble next to Google Calendar module
and we can see that oh it's missing the
end time H right so we need to provide
the end date and we can do it like
multiple ways there's multiple ways to
do it so for example we can go to dates
here and we can say uh maybe add
hours and we can use this start date and
we can can add 1 hour so let's default
to like 1 hour meetings but this is not
you know not not U elastic this is
always a meeting that lasts for an hour
even if I say that it has to last for uh
like half an hour well we should modify
the snippet itself it would be the
easiest way to do it and the snippet
itself um let me go to snippet let me
select this schedule Snead and first I'm
going to switch to GPD 4 and then I'm
going to modify the main prompt CU I
have date here but I don't have the end
date so let me copy and paste that here
by the way only the last line of this
Json shouldn't have comma at the end
this should have comma and we had the
mistake here but AI is smart enough to
correct us and there should be also a
coma so let's do end date and here we
should just say we should say like this
uh
calculate end date if the
duration is
provided if
not assume
it's uh it
lasts for half an
hour I think it would
work okay so let's save it and uh that's
it I'm going to create new conversation
now and I'm going to make sure to apply
this schedule meeting
snippet uh let me paste not this one let
me paste this one and let's run this
scenario and and run it from here now
the end end date is here as well and
it's set half an hour later so it's
correct we didn't give like any specific
time so um so the snippet knows that it
should be half an hour so okay let save
it it and I'm going to do it again but
also Let's test this what if we say that
what if we say come on copy that one
paste it in here for one hour okay what
if we what if we say the other scenario
not assume it's half an hour but maybe
precisely uh have this one hour and
let's see if it works and now we have H
we have invalided both of the dates are
invalid o uh let me see well I can see
that it's it's it added seconds here so
maybe we should check the snippet for
that
Snippets and let me search for it okay
we should so we have day month year how
uh hour and minute
format let's make sure we also have it
here let's add make sure the
date
is in this
format probably that's why it's not
working
save it and let's create a new let's
copy that first create new
conversation schedule meetings Okay run
this once more let's see how it works
yeah now all good we even got the
response from here so we got this okay
and uh we can we can create a more
sophisticated response for example
meeting uh meeting meeting meeting
meeting
scheduled and we can provide the link to
this meeting here here we have the link
to the meeting and also what I can see
here it has been created in my calendar
I even have this meeting link I have the
organizer that's me I have the attendees
and also needs action for the attendees
so basically it sent an email for the
for this person to confirm that uh that
he can join me at this meeting so
everything is great and in my calendar I
can already see this meeting is taking
place the problem is that if we schedule
another meeting uh we actually can
schedule for the same hour because we we
don't check anywhere whether we have any
conflicts in our calendar so I'm going
to show you how to handle that and this
is not difficult uh we should add a
router here let's right click on this
little dots and then add a router and
this will be our happy path so this is
like label okay I clicked on the dots
I'm just going to have like okay this is
good and this is not great okay so not
okay so when we have conf
so when we have conflict we're going to
do something else and in like first we
need to search for this conflict right
so we need here another module I right
click here and select add a module this
is Google Calendar and I'm going to
search for events I'm going to search
for events and I'm going to make sure I
have the correct connection and the
correct calendar so the same calendar I
need to search for some conflicts and
the start date of the conflict should be
the date here we can also provide the
end date it will work because here we
have that it processes events starting
before the specific start date and
overlapping with this date so great it's
going to search for not only the things
that start at the very same hour but
it's going to search for conflicts and
uh here we have the single events query
okay this looks good let's uh save it
and let's run this module first I'm
going to just click run this module only
and I need the dates I need proper dates
for the date and the end date well let
me see if I have it in my clipboard
somewhere I
should okay yeah I have this one and
then I'm going to set the end date to um
half an hour later and see if it works
it should work it should just run only
this module and indeed it gives me the
output of two bundles I have even three
bundles I have marketing strategy
discussion marketing strategy discussion
I've already scheduled some some of
those when I was trying it out so let me
now if there are some occurrences in the
calendar detect this conflict so it
means clicking on the dots and in the
condition here I want to check for the
number of bundles that this ninth module
here is the ninth module returns and if
it returns any meetings we'll have more
than zero here okay so if this is and
let's go down to numeric uh operators
and here we have greater than or equal
to one okay if it's equal to one or more
meetings we're going to have like a you
know conflict and if it's not so I'm
going to use the same condition but
total number of bundles equal to let's
make sure it's numeric as well equal to
zero if it's zero conflicts then I can
go ahead and schedule if there is a
conflict however I want to copy this
response I want to clone this module
here let's delete that one and I want to
say that well not okay right because we
have a conflict so I'm going to say
conflict and uh you have you have um
meeting at this time and I can also have
this uh from this bundle I can get like
the first first link to the first
meeting that I have scheduled for this
very time okay I'm going to save it I'm
going to run it once again let me see
let me try to schedule again for 1300 so
it should take the conflict path and
indeed it it does it says conflict you
have a meeting at this time and there is
also a link to this meeting that's
conflicting so okay so it looks good now
and for our very simple scenario for
creating meetings and having it checked
for conflicts we can just turn it on and
forget about it and we can use this
snippet whenever we want however
obviously the scenarios like this can be
more sophisticated I'm going to show you
that in the more advanced course because
we can also create different actions
that will allow us to for example modify
existing meetings to get the list of the
meetings or maybe cancel the meetings uh
straight from Amy but this is the first
step to do it and I hope that you
understand and try to recreate this
scenario you can also download the
complete blueprint and just make sure
that you have the proper connections
that uh point to your calendar for now
that's it thanks for tuning in and see
you in the next one
