Sync with Google Calendar
Connect PracticeQ to your Google Calendar to sync appointments and show availability.
Sync Your Calendars
- Click Bookings → Booking Settings.
- Select the Sync tab.
- Click the button Connect with Google Calendar.
- Google will ask you to authenticate to give access to your calendar.
- Once permission is granted, you should be redirected back to PracticeQ, where you will see a success message, as well as various options that come along with the integration.
- Select to read events from multiple Google Calendars as needed
Note: All the Google calendars must be contained within the same Google account. You can only export appointments to a single calendar.
Force PracticeQ to Re-sync with Google Calendar
- If for some reason your PracticeQ account disconnects from Google Calendar, your PracticeQ appointments that were created while the connection was not active will not show up in your Google Calendar. The solution is to force the calendars to re-sync.
- To re-sync with Google Calendar, click Resync with Google Calendar which is among the Google Calendar options.
Determine When Google Events Should Block Time in PracticeQ
- PracticeQ will take your Google Calendar events into account when determining your availability. However, it will only see you as unavailable if your Google Calendar event is set to Busy, which is the default setting in Google Calendar.
- The Busy field can be changed in your Google Calendar or in your PracticeQ calendar.
- To change the Busy field in Google Calendar, open the event and select an option as indicated in the screenshot below.
- This field can also be edited inside PracticeQ. Just click on the Google event in your PracticeQ calendar and check or uncheck the box indicated in the image below.
Note: The note field in the Add Appointment dialog will not export to the Google Calendar.
