Sync Google Calendar

Manage both your Google Calendar and Zoho Calendar in one space by using the sync feature provided in Zoho Calendar. Google Calendar sync allows you to synchronize your Google Calendar with your Zoho Calendar, from where you can add/edit/delete events in Google Calendar. You can manage both calendars together with ease and schedule events perfectly without having to jump between tabs.

Events added on Zoho Calendar not syncing with Google Calendar

While adding events to Zoho Calendar, if you find that the events are not being synced with Google Calendar then you need to select the calendar as Google Calendar in the Create Event window while adding an event. There might be a slight delay in the event reflecting on Google Calendar. Refresh after some time and the event will be added.

Clicking on Google Calendar sync doesn't start the sync

You might observe that when you have clicked on Google Calendar sync, your sync is not enabled. This happens when you have disabled the pop-ups in your browser. Once you have enabled the pop-ups in your browser, click on Google Calendar sync. Enter the credentials in the authentication window to proceed with the sync further.
