Invalid Argument: Timezone. Should Be of Type: String

Some of our users have reported receiving an Invalid argument: timeZone. Should be of type: String error when trying to merge events with their calendars. This is caused by a mismatch in time zones between the spreadsheet and the calendar you are trying to sync with. To fix this, you must manually change the time zone settings on each to match.

Note: Google does not list the same time zone options for each application, so you may have to choose a city different from yours with the same time zone.
