Every day at 09:00 → Events starting soon (24 hours) → If How many is over 0 → Announce As text.

What it does

The server's scheduled events that start within some hours, soonest first, with how many are interested. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 5 values later steps can use. Find it under Server in the palette.

When to use it

A 9:00 "today in the server" post, or an hourly check that reminds people an hour before an event.

When not to

Only events that haven't started yet are listed. For the one next event with more about it, Next event is simpler.
