Calendar Sync (Google / Apple Calendar)

Employees can sync their work schedule to their personal calendar. This allows shifts and time off to appear directly in the default calendar app on their phone or desktop.

This feature is currently in Beta.
Contact your account manager for early access.

Setting up calendar sync

The calendar sync link can be accessed from the settings menu. First, select the calendar type you'd like to connect: Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook.

Create calendar sync

Select a calendar type and click Add Calendar. You'll be prompted to login to your calendar provider. Confirm all required permissions and click Continue.

How Calendar Sync Works

The sync is one-way from Easyteam to your calendar. Changes cannot be made in your calendar app and they will not affect your Easyteam schedule.

Updating shifts on Easyteam will reflect in the calendar app after a certain delay. Calendar feeds are refreshed approximately every two hours, depending on the calendar provider. In some cases the sync might be delayed. Users can use the 'Re-sync Now' button to force a re-sync.

Sync Timing and Troubleshooting

Changes are synced in the background without user input. Some calendar providers might introduce additional delay.

If syncing stops, click Disconnect and then login again to your account to re-establish the connection.

Each user can connect one calendar per provider (Google, Apple, Outlook).

Subscribing to a Google/Apple calendar adds the shifts to all devices that are logged in to the calendar account automatically. Meaning, syncing the calendar on mobile will appear on desktop on vice-versa.
