How to connect Google Calendar

OAuth-based two-way sync — no API keys, no Zapier middleman. Each staff member connects their own calendar.

  1. 1Go to Settings → Connected accounts → Google Calendar.
  2. 2Click Connect and sign in with the Google account that owns the calendar.
  3. 3Select which calendar(s) to sync — work calendar only is fine.
  4. 4Enable "Block bookings when Google shows Busy" (on by default).

Sync is near-real-time — we poll every 30 seconds and push booking creates immediately. If you block lunch in Google as "Busy", that slot disappears from your booking page without you touching anything.

Common snag: connecting a shared "info@" Google account instead of the individual stylist's calendar. Per-staff sync is the whole point — otherwise everyone's availability looks identical.
