Appointment Reminder Agent automates phone call reminders for upcoming appointments by seamlessly connecting Google Calendar with Retell AI. This powerful workflow is designed to help businesses, clinics, and service providers ensure clients never miss their scheduled appointments—reducing no-shows and increasing efficiency. ##Use Cases Healthcare practitioners reminding patients of upcoming visits Salons, spas, and beauty services confirming bookings Consultants, therapists, and coaches sending appointment reminders Any service-based business wanting to reduce missed appointments ##Workflow Overview Trigger – A scheduler node runs every day at 9 AM (configurable) to start the workflow. Fetch Events – Pulls all events scheduled in the next 12 hours from Google Calendar. Extract Details – A Code node parses each event’s description for: Name Phone number (must be in E.164 format, e.g., +14155552671) Reason for appointment Start and end time Configure Retell – Uses credentials to set up: from_number (Retell-registered phone number) agent_id (Retell agent ID) Send Call – Calls Retell AI’s API to place a personalized reminder call to the client. ##Setup Instructions Add your Retell API key to n8n credentials (never hardcode it). Add your Google Calendar account to credentials. Set the from_number (Retell-registered number). Set the agent_id (Retell agent ID). Ensure all calendar event descriptions include required fields (Name, Phone number, Reason, Start & End times) in the specified format. Adjust the scheduler trigger time if needed. ##Requirements Retell AI account with API key Registered Retell phone number Google Calendar account Event descriptions formatted properly with all required details ##Customization Options Modify the trigger schedule (e.g., nightly, hourly, or webhook-based). Add logging or tracking (e.g., use Google Sheets or Airtable to log call attempts/results). Tailor the Retell agent script to suit different appointment types (e.g., “Consultation,” “Follow-up,” “Service Visit”). Expand with additional channels (e.g., SMS or email reminders before or after calls). An n8n automation workflow template by Nabin Bhandari.
