Google Calendar is always offered. The Microsoft button is behind a flag while the Microsoft app completes publisher verification.
Before you begin
- A Google account holding the calendar you want checked. Connecting asks for permission to see and change events on it, because a booking is a change.
A calendar connection belongs to you, not to the workspace. Every host on a meeting link connects their own. Connecting yours does nothing for a teammate who hasn’t connected theirs.
Steps
1
Open your calendar connections
Go to . With nothing connected yet, the card reads No calendar connected yet above a single Connect Google Calendar button. That first connection, including Google’s own consent screen, is walked through in Connect your calendar so leads can book. The steps below pick up from there.Once an account is connected, the card looks like this:The chip (1) reads Connected, and the line under it (2) gives the whole setup in one sentence: how many calendars are checked for conflicts, and which calendar bookings are added to. Nothing else has to be opened to read it.
2
Connect an account, or add another
Connect Google Calendar sends the whole page to Google and brings you back once you approve access. Once you have one account, the same button reappears under an Add calendar account heading below the cards, so a second account (a shared team calendar, say) connects the same way.A second account gets its own card, its own conflict selection and its own status. The one thing it does not get is its own destination calendar: that is a single choice across all of your accounts, which the next step covers.
Declining the calendar permission on Google’s screen is the one outcome that says nothing. You land back on the page you left with no new card and no message. That is a connection that did not happen, not one that failed. A connection that fails carries a red message with the reason.
3
Choose which calendars are checked, and where bookings go
Edit calendars opens a dialog titled Select the calendars to check for conflicts. The list is read from Google each time you open it, not from what was stored, so a calendar you were added to five minutes ago is already there.Tick every calendar that holds real commitments (1). A bookable time then disappears whenever a ticked calendar has a busy event on it; a calendar you leave unticked is never checked, however busy it really is.Lower down, Add booked meetings to (2) picks the one calendar new bookings are created on. Only calendars you can write to are offered here. A calendar shared with you read-only can still be ticked for conflicts, but nothing can be created on it. If none of this account’s calendars are writable, the section reads “This account has no calendars you can add events to.” instead of offering a choice, and Save still works, so your conflict selection is kept either way.
4
Reconnect an account that lost access
When an account’s access is withdrawn on Google’s side, the refusal only surfaces the next time we ask for a fresh token. The card’s chip then changes from Connected to Needs reconnection, and a Reconnect button appears beside Edit calendars.Reconnect (1) sends you back through the same Google approval as a first connection. Opening Edit calendars on an account in this state shows the same thing a different way: “This account lost access to your calendar. Reconnect it to manage its calendars.” It has its own Reconnect button, and Save stays disabled until the account is back. Either button restarts the connection, and your saved calendar selection survives it.
5
Disconnect an account you no longer use
The trash icon on a card (its tooltip reads Disconnect) opens Disconnect calendar account?. The dialog says exactly what happens: existing bookings are left alone, and only that account’s calendars stop being checked for conflicts. Confirming with Disconnect removes the card immediately.Disconnecting one account never touches any other calendar account you have connected. Each is independent.
What happens next
The account shows a Connected chip, and its summary line names both how many calendars are checked and where bookings will land.
Troubleshooting
Edit calendars shows no choice for where bookings go
Edit calendars shows no choice for where bookings go
“This account has no calendars you can add events to.” means none of that account’s calendars are ones you can write to. Only a calendar you own or can write to can receive a new booking. Those calendars can still be ticked for conflict checking. If you need somewhere for bookings to land, connect an account that has a writable calendar.
The card says Needs reconnection
The card says Needs reconnection
Access was withdrawn on Google’s side, and the refusal only surfaces the next time we ask for a fresh token. Until you reconnect, that account’s calendars are skipped when your availability is worked out, so times you are busy on them can be offered again. Reconnect on the card, or inside Edit calendars, restarts the same connection you made the first time. See the step above.

Check whose row it is. Calendar connections are personal: connecting yours only sets your own row to Calendar connected. A teammate who hosts the same link has to sign in and connect their own. You cannot do it for them. Hosts: round robin vs collective covers what an unconnected host means for that link’s bookings.
