Embedding a Google Calendar on your CRM website is a straightforward way to manage and share events with your team and clients. By centralising event information, you improve visibility and make sure key dates are easy to find without having to leave your platform. This guide walks you through the process.

Embedding Your Google Calendar

Create or Select Your Google Calendar

Navigate to calendar.google.com and either select an existing calendar or create a new one by clicking on the plus button next to "Other calendars" and selecting "Create new calendar" from the main menu.

Configure Your Calendar

If you've chosen to create a new calendar, give it a name and make sure the correct time zone is selected to avoid scheduling conflicts.

Add Events to Your Calendar

Click on your desired date and time to add an event. You can set it to repeat for recurring events and include details such as event descriptions and links.

Embed the Google Calendar

In Google Calendar settings, find your calendar under "Settings for my calendars," select "Integrate calendar," and copy the embed code provided.

Modifying Your Website

Access the Websites section of your account, and either select an existing site or create a new one where you wish to embed the calendar.

Add a Code element to your page and paste the embed code into this element.

Save your changes and preview the page to ensure the calendar displays correctly. Once satisfied, publish the page.

📌Note: This embedding process enables users to view the calendar; clients and team members will not have the ability to make bookings. For booking functionality, it is recommended to use the Calendar Element.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • If the calendar does not display immediately, ensure you've saved all changes and refreshed the page.
  • Verify that the Google Calendar is set to public visibility to ensure it can be viewed when embedded on your website.
