Google Calendar integration FAQ
Town's Google Calendar integration connects your calendar through Google's official sign-in — one click, no setup. Your Townie can read your schedule and, with your approval, create and change events. Under the hood these are Town's calendar tools: list events, get event details, create, edit, and delete events.
Town only reads your calendar when you (or a routine you configured) ask for it, and access is scoped to the account you connect. By default, event changes and invites wait for your approval; routines can opt into automatic finalization when you enable that setting. Read more about how Town approaches security.
By default, no — new events, reschedules, and invites are drafted and held for your approval. If you want a routine to run more autonomously, you opt in per routine; you're always in control of how much it does alone.
Your events and availability on the calendar you connect — what's scheduled, when you're free, who's attending. It reads exactly what a request needs, and pairs calendar context with your email and meeting notes for scheduling replies and prep.
You need a Google account with a calendar, and a Town account — free to start. The Google Calendar connection works on every Town plan.
No — it works alongside one. A scheduling link makes people pick from your openings; Town drafts the reply with real times in it, which often closes scheduling in one email. If you use Calendly or Cal.com, Town connects to those too.
What is Google Calendar?
Google Calendar is where your working life is scheduled — meetings, focus blocks, deadlines, and the availability everyone else is trying to find. For most teams it's the single source of truth for time.
Your calendar knows when; Town does the coordinating around it. Connected, every scheduling email, conflict, and meeting gets handled with your real availability in hand — not a guess.
