It only takes a few clicks to automatically add an Event, Live Class or Webinar to your work calendar. Below outlines the steps to ensure you never miss a session.

Note: the word 'events' is often used to collectively describe Events, Live Classes and Webinars.

  1. Scroll down the Homepage to the Events tab, to see all of the events assigned to you.

2. Select the event you wish to book on to. This will take you to the landing page, where you can select your session.

3. Once confirmed, the Calendar option will appear, showcasing to either sync your Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar.

4. Click the calendar you want to connect, and allow the HowNow app permission to integrate with your email account.

If you hadn't previously integrated your Calendar - within your Profile - the new tab may ask you to sign in to your email account.

You'll be taken back to the landing page of the event, now with your time slot added to your calendar.

Note✨: You can also select the option to add the calendar to other providers, such as Yahoo and Apple Calendars. This can be done by clicking Add To Calendar, from the landing page.

Should the Live Class, Webinar or Event later be modified, by the Author, then the following information will be updated for the calendar entry:

  • Date/Time - this change currently will only be reflected on Google Calendars.

  • Content name

  • User Assignment - the slot will be removed from your (the User) calendar, if unassigned from the Live Class/Webinar/Event.

  • Booking Status - the slot will be removed from your calendar, if either you or the content Author, has cancelled it, before the start of the session.

  • Content is deleted - the entry will be removed from your calendar, as it no longer exists

5. You can later Disconnect your calendar via your Profile > Integrations tab. If you also have Google Drive connected, then a warning will appear, explaining that this will also become disconnected, as your Google Account is what is integrated specifically. You can always reconnect your Google Drive, separately.

Note✨: The following points, are things to remember, regarding this feature...

  • Auto-enrolled Users will have the Live Class/Webinar/Event automatically added to their calendar (once already integrated).

  • The Address of an Event (location) will not get added to your calendar.

  • You cannot add a session time slot to your calendar, if that session has already started.

  • If you have a booking that is cancelled, while a session is underway, it won't be removed from your calendar.
