Using Shared Google Calendars

Shared Google Calendars are a recommended method for managing different types of calendar events and invitations, ensuring that multiple people have access to the calendar.

Adding a Shared Calendar

1. Navigate to Settings > Linked Accounts > Google Workspace.
2. Select the account that has access to the shared calendar.
3. Select the shared calendar from the list.

Caution

Selected account will be the sender, so recipients will see which individual is associated with the shared calendar
