Syncing your calendars

Granola syncs with your Google Calendar to notify you about upcoming meetings, and to generate better meeting notes using context from the meeting details and attendees.

These things make a big difference to the experience you'll have when using Granola, so here's how to make sure it's set up correctly.

Upcoming meetings for the next 3 days will be shown in the Coming up section of the app - by default, we show a 5 meetings to keep the app tidy, but you can click to show 10 at a time.

Any changes made to events on your calendar should be reflected in Granola within a few minutes.

Events that you've declined, or calendar entries that aren't events (like Out of Office, Focus Time or Working Location blocks) won't be displayed in Granola.

Using multiple calendars

Your primary calendar in Google Calendar is synced by default, and you can toggle on any additional calendars by clicking the gear icon next to Coming up, or in Settings > Calendar.

If you have events in calendars from other accounts, you'll need to share these with the Google account you're using to log in to Granola with.

If you're using Granola on iOS, you'll need to make these changes in our macOS or Windows app, and they'll be synced to Granola on iOS.

Calendars from other Google accounts

You can share calendars from another Google account by following the steps here. Just share the calendars with the account that you log into Granola with, and wait a few minutes for the events to sync over.

You'll need to select 'See all event details' when sharing a calendar for Granola to be able to sync your meetings
