Our new Calendar Integration feature enables real-time syncing between your Google or Outlook Calendar and Mesh, ensuring accurate availability of information across calendars.
Note: Calendar integration is a user-specific setting. Thus, each user is required to integrate their Google or Outlook calendar with Mesh to ensure that the feature is setup for them.
The best part is that it works both ways:
- You can reschedule/cancel a meeting in your Google or Outlook Calendar and it gets updated in Mesh
or
- You can reschedule/cancel a meeting in your Mesh workspace and it gets updated in your Google or Outlook Calendar.
Connecting with the Calendar Integration
To sync Mesh with your Google or Outlook calendars,
Step 1: Once you have logged in to your Mesh workspace, choose Me.
Step 2: Choose the Calendar option under the “MY SETTINGS” section in the left side navigation panel.
You will be able to see a list of calendars that can be synced with Mesh. Currently, Mesh can be synced with your Google and Outlook calendars.
Step 3: Click on the Sync button with the Google or Outlook calendar as used within your company
Step 4: You will be required to sign into your Google or Microsoft accounts and grant the requisite permissions.
On doing so, the integration will be enabled between Mesh and your respective calendars.
We have also compiled a list of FAQs that can answer certain doubts our users commonly have with this feature.
