Set up Google Calendar Sync

Sync your Google calendars with Daylite to get the full power of Daylite — linking, team visibility, and connected workflows — while keeping the flexibility to work in Google Calendar when you need to

Google Calendar Sync is a two-way sync. Appointments created in a Google calendar appear in Daylite, and Daylite Appointments with the synced category appear in the paired Google calendar. Changes sync automatically in both directions.


Before you begin:

  • To sync your Google calendars, a Daylite admin must turn on Google Calendar Sync for your company.

  • All devices in your company must be running the latest version of Daylite.

  • Appointment visibility is controlled by Daylite permissions, so you can manage which Appointments your team can see.

Enable Google Calendar Sync

A Daylite admin must turn on Calendar Sync for your company. If you are a normal user, jump to Add a Google Calendar to Sync with Daylite once your admin has turned this feature on.

If you are an admin, follow the steps below to enable Google Calendar Sync:

  1. Go to Daylite > Settings > Calendar Integration > Calendar Sync and click Manage Calendar Sync, or go to my.daylite.app/settings/calendar-sync.

  2. Click Enable Calendar Sync for Your Company

If any users in your company are using unsupported versions of Daylite, you will be prompted to have the users update to the latest version of Daylite, or to remove those devices from the company account. Removing a device will delete the offline database and prevent the user from logging back in on that device until they update Daylite.

After any incompatible devices are resolved, you will be able to Enable Calendar Sync.
