Google Calendar

CalKeep connects to any Google or Google Workspace account via OAuth and syncs your calendars two-way.

Connect​

  1. Go to Settings → Connected Accounts.
  2. Click Connect Google Calendar.
  3. Sign in with the Google account whose calendars you want to sync.
  4. Grant the requested permissions (Calendar read/write, Contacts read).
  5. CalKeep imports your calendars within ~30 seconds and starts a two-way sync.

What's synced​

  • All calendars on the account, including secondary calendars and ones shared with you.
  • Events with full metadata: title, description, location, attendees, recurrence rules, attachments, conferencing links.
  • Contacts (if you grant Contacts scope) — used for the CRM and follow-up reminders features.

Disconnect​

Settings → Connected Accounts → [your account] → Disconnect. This revokes the OAuth grant on Google's side and removes the calendar from your unified view. Events that already synced into CalKeep stay until you delete them; nothing is force-deleted from your Google calendar.

Troubleshooting​

  • Sync stopped after a password change: reconnect the account. Google invalidates OAuth tokens on certain account events (password change, MFA enrollment changes). CalKeep surfaces a "reconnect" prompt at Settings → Connected Accounts when this happens.
  • An event is missing: wait 2 minutes for the next poll cycle, or click Sync now on the connected account row.
  • A recurring event looks wrong: Google and CalKeep handle recurrence-with-exceptions slightly differently. If you spot a misalignment, tell us — these edge cases get fixed quickly when reported.

For multiple Google accounts (personal + work), connect them separately. CalKeep treats them as distinct sources but renders them in one calendar view.
