# Calendar integrations

> Connect Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook to block busy times and add bookings automatically.

## Overview

Connect your Google or Microsoft calendar so Autocampaign AI can **block your busy
times** (preventing double-booking) and **add new bookings** to your calendar
automatically. Manage connections at **Settings → Calendars** (`/settings/calendars`).

## Connect a calendar

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Settings → Calendars">
    Click **Connect Google Calendar** or **Connect Microsoft Outlook**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in and allow access">
    You'll be sent to Google or Microsoft to allow access, then returned to
    Autocampaign AI.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose how each calendar is used">
    For each calendar on the account, switch on or off:

    * **Check for conflicts** — pulls busy times into your availability so booked
      slots disappear.
    * **Add bookings here** — makes this the calendar where new booking events (and
      Google Meet links) are created.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets synced

* **Busy times** from calendars marked "Check for conflicts" remove matching slots
  from your booking pages.
* **Bookings** are written to the calendar marked "Add bookings here", and updated
  or removed when a booking is rescheduled or cancelled.

<Note>
  **Google Meet** links are generated only on Google connections. Microsoft
  connections can't create Meet links.
</Note>

## Check the connection status

* **Connected** — syncing normally.
* **Needs attention** — access stopped working; click **Reconnect**.
* **Disconnected** — removed.
