Important Information
Please note: Once Google Calendar Sync is enabled, newly created bookings will begin syncing to the selected calendar moving forward.
Booking Sync Behavior
When a new booking is created, the system automatically:
- Syncs the event to the business’s connected Google Calendar
- Sends a calendar invite email based on Google Calendar behavior
- May display the event details on the guest’s personal calendar, depending on how their calendar account handles invites
Existing / Older Bookings
Bookings created before Google Calendar Sync was enabled will not be added retroactively.
Only bookings created after activation will sync properly to the selected Google Calendar.
