Welcome to the Make community!

Yes, that is possible. You’ll need a minimum of two modules:

Note: PATCH does not override fields that are not included in the payload, so you do not need to reinsert all the other event details.

This is just an example. Your final solution may or may not look like this depending on your requirements.

Module Export

You can copy and paste this module export into your scenario. This will paste the modules shown in my screenshots above.

  1. Copy the JSON code below by clicking the copy button when you mouseover the top-right of the code block

  2. Enter your scenario editor. Press ESC to close any dialogs. Press CTRLV (paste keyboard shortcut for Windows) to paste directly in the canvas.

  3. Click on each imported module and save it for validation. You may be prompted to remap some variables and connections.
