Integrating your Google Calendar allows you to see all of your events from both on and off Add to Event in one place, so you can easily check your availability before sending a quote.

By syncing your Google Calendar with your Add to Event account, all of your entries from this calendar will appear in your Add to Event calendar (alongside any manual entries you’ve added and bookings you’ve confirmed through us).

This means you can quickly manage your time, spot availability conflicts, and make quoting decisions faster than ever before.

The Google Calendar Integration allows you to sync your Google Calendar with your Add to Event calendar. Once connected, you’ll see all of your events, from both Google Calendar and Add to Event, in one place. This makes it easy to check your availability before sending a quote, without switching tabs.

When you connect your Google Calendar, all your existing entries automatically appear alongside your Add to Event manual entries and confirmed bookings. You’ll see everything in one unified calendar view.

Once complete, your Google Calendar entries will appear directly in your Add to Event calendar.

If you have multiple Google accounts, you can select which one you would like to sync during set up. We will only sync the main calendar from this account.

Only events from your main Google Calendar will appear. Additional calendars, such as shared or personal ones, aren’t included.

We also exclude tasks, holidays, and birthdays.

If you’d like events from another calendar to appear, you’ll need to copy them into your main Google Calendar.

Updates appear in real-time. Any changes you make in Google Calendar, including adding, editing, or deleting an entry, will reflect in Add to Event.

If you don’t see updates right away, press “Refresh” in the top-right corner of your Add to Event calendar.

Yes. You can disable the integration anytime by going to your Integrations tab and selecting “Disconnect from Google Calendar.”

This immediately stops all syncing and removes your external events from your Add to Event calendar.

Nothing will change about the requests or notifications you receive. You’ll continue to receive all requests as normal, regardless of Google Calendar events - even if you have the auto-blocking feature turned on.

However, when you open a new request and preview the event details, you can check the “Your Availability” section to see how many events you have in your Add to Event and Google Calendars.

This will show which will one of the following statuses:

You can click on the status to expand and review the details of existing events in your calendar before deciding to:

If there’s an overlap, both events will display in your Add to Event calendar - nothing is blocked automatically.

Yes. You can always manage your availability manually:

Blocking a date won’t affect existing quotes or bookings but will stop new requests for that day. You can unblock it anytime.

You can also turn on Autoblock, which automatically blocks new requests on days where you have confirmed Add to Event bookings.

Days with external (Google) events are never blocked automatically, they’re simply shown for awareness.

Remember: auto-block will only work to block out dates for new confirmed bookings from the date you turn it on. It won’t block out dates for bookings that are already confirmed in your calendar.

You’ll still see your manually added events and confirmed bookings.
