Important Notes
Single Calendar Integration
- Only one calendar integration can be active at a time
- If you connect Microsoft Outlook, you'll need to disconnect Google Calendar (or vice versa)
- This ensures clean data and prevents conflicts
User-Scoped Integration
- Microsoft Outlook is a user-scoped integration
- Each team member connects their own Outlook Calendar
- Calendar events are private to each user
- Admins cannot see other users' calendar events

The integration requires the following Google Calendar permissions:
