Google Calendar Sync

You can connect your own Google Calendar to Arkata so the meetings you schedule in Arkata also land in your personal calendar. This is a per-user connection — each person connects their own account, and it only ever touches their own primary Google Calendar.

Connecting

  1. Open the Calendar page
  2. Click Connect Google Calendar
  3. Read the privacy summary, then click Continue to Google
  4. Sign in to Google and grant access
Once connected, the button shows Google connected along with the account you linked.

What syncs

  • New meetings created in Arkata are added to your primary Google Calendar.
  • Later edits or deletions in Arkata update only the Google events that Arkata created. Arkata never changes events you made yourself in Google.

Your privacy

  • Your Google Calendar events are visible only to you. Their details are not shared with your colleagues or with your firm’s owners.
  • Arkata uses them only to show your availability and to keep Arkata meetings in step. Personal Google event details are not permanently stored.

Disconnecting

Open the Calendar page, click Google connected, then Disconnect. Arkata stops syncing straight away.

If sync fails

If Google can’t be reached when you save, Arkata still saves your change and tells you Google wasn’t updated — your Arkata data is always safe. If your connection has expired, the button changes to Reconnect Google; click it to reconnect from the Calendar page.
