Right now only creating a new event allows for an user to link an event to a channel to get reminders, we need to let users link their existing events as well.

Acceptance criteria

  • Work towards a reasonable UI/UX
  • Remember the user linking the event that some of the event details will be shared out in the channel, where non-invited attendees could be.
  • Allow users to search their events in order to link one to a channel
  • Linked event channel should receive reminders 5minutes before the event takes place
  • Linked event channel should receive event changes (if Allow event change notifications for Google Calendar mattermost-plugin-google-calendar#51 is done)

Hey @fmartingr,

CRE would love to have this feature as it would also allow us to link your existing standup meetings to our team chat.

I wonder if a reasonable UI/UX could be a simple slash command that links to the current channel. Do you have ideas on how a user could pick the event to link? By URL?

That was the main problem for the UX, that you have to search for the event, and recurring meetings work different (you may use an ID for an instance of a recurring meeting, not for all as a whole). One idea would be to use a command to link an event by the link on the WebUI, but the URL in the webUI does not contain the event ID on it's own as well...

I mean, it's doable, but is not that straightforward. Would be happy to have this for our own meetings.
