1.Runs hourly iCal sync
Integrate Schedule by Zapier and scheduling tools to monitor an hourly run cycle for turnover record refreshes.
Create or update turnover records from iCal feeds
Automatically poll iCal feed updates on an hourly schedule across Code by Zapier and Zapier Tables. Create and update turnover records when iCal files refresh, new VEVENTs appear, or reservation details change—so you can parse stays, compute turnover flags, and keep the operations table current without manual spreadsheet updates.
How this automation keeps turnover records current
When an hourly iCal schedule fires, manual entry can leave turnover records stale and cleaning assignments mismatched. This automation fetches iCal files, parses VEVENT reservations, and creates or updates records in Zapier Tables—so your team can trust check-in and turnover timing.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
