Sync your bookings to Google Calendar or Outlook

S
Written by Sunil Sharma

Connect your calendar once and every live class or webinar you book in HowNow is added to it, so you don't have to add sessions by hand.

Connect from Your Apps

  1. Select your name at the bottom of the sidebar, then Settings › Your Apps.

  2. Select Connect next to Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar.

    Your Apps, with Connect highlighted next to Google Calendar

  3. Sign in to Google or Microsoft and allow HowNow access.

You return to Your Apps, and the calendar moves to the Connected tab.

Connect straight after booking

If you haven't connected a calendar, a Connect Calendar window appears after you book a session.

  1. Select Connect next to Connect Google Calendar or Connect Outlook Calendar. The sign-in page opens in a new tab.

  2. Sign in and allow HowNow access.

Not ready? Select Skip. To stop the window appearing after every booking, tick Do not show again first. You can still connect later from Your Apps.

What happens next

  • Sessions you've already booked are added in the background, so they can take a few minutes to appear. Only upcoming bookings are added.

  • New bookings are added as you make them.

  • If a session changes or you cancel, the calendar event is updated or removed.

Good to know

  • Google Calendar and Google Drive share one Google sign-in, so disconnecting either one disconnects both.

  • If your workspace has hidden the add-to-calendar option, the window doesn't appear after booking. Connect from Your Apps instead.
