iPhone & iPad Shortcut
Follow the "Catch Gig" Shortcut steps in the README. The Shortcut posts to
/api/capture with the header X-Gig-Token set to your access code.
Catch a gig
Add every screenshot that belongs to the post: the flyer, each slide, the expanded caption.
A venue web page link works on its own. Instagram and Facebook links need a screenshot too.
Your gig list
Clean gigs go straight to the calendar. Anything marked Needs review waits in the sheet: fix it, set Status to Approved, then send it here.
To double-check gigs against the web, tick the Check box on those rows in the sheet's Events tab, then press the button. The answer appears in the Web check column; nothing else changes. Couldn't confirm is normal for gigs that are only posted on Instagram or Facebook.
Festivals
Each festival on the sheet's Festivals tab gets its own calendar with every set on it. This reads each festival's website for its lineup and times.
Venue names
The sheet's Venues tab gives each venue one standard name, with the town added for places that have more than one location (like The Local Ponte Vedra). Build it once from the past gigs; after that new gigs are matched to it automatically. You can edit the tab and your edits win.
