Is it possible to sync my outlook calendar to my google calendar? If so, how do I do this?

Hello Terra, Greetings for the day. I’m an Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here at this forum. When you export your Outlook calendar to Google Calendar, you’re exporting a snapshot of the calendar. Any changes you make to your Outlook calendar won’t automatically be reflected in Google Calendar. Step 1: Export 1. In Outlook, open the Calendar, and select the calendar you want to export. 2. Click File > Save Calendar. 3. Use the default name or type a name for the iCalendar file in the File name box. 4. Click More Options. 5. Click the Date Range arrow, and choose the amount of calendar data you want to include in the iCalendar file or click Specify dates to enter a custom date range. 6. Click the Detail arrow and, choose the amount of detail you want to show. 7. Click OK, and then click Save. Step 2: Import the calendar into Google Calendar 1. Log onto your Google Calendar account. 2. At the top of the page, click the Settings wheel > Settings. 3. Along the left side of the screen, select Import & export. 4. Click Select file from your computer. 5. Pick the file that you created when you exported your calendar from Outlook, and then click Open. 6. If you have multiple Google calendars, use the Add to calendar drop-down box to pick the calendar you want to receive your imported items, and then click Import. 7. Click the back arrow at the top, left corner of the screen to return to your calendar.

I do not need to export a snapshot of my calendar.

I need to sync my outlook calendar so I can see changes in google calendar. Is there an mechanism to do this?

crickets....

I swore this used to work before. Was able to sync my office outlook calendar to google then it stopped working. Must be company policy.

Follow this steps:

Thanks JasperBaniqued , that worked for me!!

I have been using an Outlook (desktop) plug-in called gSyncit to accomplish a bi-directional Outlook <==> Gmail calendar sync. The plug-in is created/supported/sold by Fieldston Software and costs $20.

It can sync a lot of other data besides Google Calendar with Outlook (I also sync Outlook and Google contacts). I've been using the product for about 5 years and it gets the job done. Their product support people are knowledgeable, responsive, and US-based. A new version is released every couple of years, usually to accommodate new protocols required by Google.

I've looked for other (and free) ways to do this, and haven't found anything better than gSyncit.

Good luck,

Michael

Amazing how the Microsoft representative Ravikumar totally ignored the question you were asking. Instead he chose to answer the question that you specifically said you were NOT asking. I'm beginning to root for AI to replace humans.

Independent advisors do not work for Microsoft. They can be here once to answer questions... revisit the site in a few days/weeks/years or never come back at all.

I use Outlook app for Android to sync outlook calendar content to my Google calendar.

From my android this worked for me.

Make sure you have both Google calendar and the Microsoft outlook app installed.

1. Open the outlook app, tap the inbox icon (top left for me)

2. Click the settings gear (bottom left)

3. Under mail accounts, tap on the one you want to sync.

4. Turn on the "sync calendars" option, allow access to your calendar if needed.

5. Check your Google calendar app to confirm outlook calendar items are there.

This is why so much of Microsoft sucks.
