Who likes doing the same task twice? We certainly don't and you probably don't either. That's why integrating your Google Calendar with Timely is the best thing since sliced bread! 🍞
With the Google Calendar integration, you can see all your scheduled appointments for each day and quickly log meeting time just by clicking on them. BOOM! Time logged.
Calendar Rules:
When you integrate your calendar(s), you'll get 28 days calendar history and 14 days in the future.
Data is never sent back or changed in Google Calendar; what you do in Timely, stays in Timely.
Any changes you make in Google Calendar will automatically update in Timely.
Events you change in Timely (e.g. meeting times or tagged projects), will be overridden by any subsequent changes you make in Google Calendar.
Special Notes:
All-day events will not show up in Timely. To have these events show up in Timely, you can simply unselect the "all-day" option in the event and enter the From-To times.
Multi-day events will not show up in Timely.
This is not a two-way sync: entries created in Timely will not import into your Google Calendar.
If you disconnect your Google Calendar integration, keep in mind that Memory events will be deleted from your timeline.
