Syncing Your Schoox Calendar with Your External Calendars (Google, Outlook, etc)

The Sync Calendar option helps you meet deadlines by syncing your Schoox Calendar to your Google Calendar, Outlook, or any other calendar you may use.

The entire sync setup happens within your personal settings. Hover over Me in the top navigation bar, and select My Settings. Then under Integrations on the left, select your calendar option. 

There you can select the calendar elements you'd like to sync from the drop-down menu, and connect the two calendars. 

You will then also be able to associate it with a specific calendar if you've subscribed to more than one.

Google and Outlook calendars are officially supported by the integration.

Apple calendar, unfortunately, is not available currently. However, the Other Training Calendars option is available, and should work for most other calendar services.

Alternatively, to sync a Schoox calendar, you can go to your Homepage and click on the Sync Calendar option on the top right of your Schoox calendar as presented below.

From the Sync to Calendar popup window, select the entities that you want to be synced with your external calendar. You have the option to sync several entities such as Live Sessions, In-Class Trainings, Due Dates, Expiration Dates, etc. Once you are done click the Copy Link button to copy the calendar's link.

To sync your Schoox calendar with your Google calendar:

1. Open Google Calendar
2. Next to Other Calendars, click the drop-down arrow
3. Select Add by URL
4. Paste the link you previously copied from Schoox into the URL field

To sync your Schoox Calendar with your Outlook Calendar:

3. Select From Internet
4. Paste the link you previously copied from Schoox into the Link to the calendar field

To sync your Schoox Calendar with your Apple Calendar:

1. Open Apple Calendar
2. Select File
3. Select New Calendar Subscription
4. Paste the link you previously copied from Schoox in the Calendar URL field
5. Select Subscribe
6. Edit the Calendar's options. We recommend setting auto-refresh to Every 5 minutes
7. Once you're done, select OK.

Notes:

• When you enable the calendar sync option in your personal settings, Schoox initiates the synchronization process, enabling real-time updates to your Google and Outlook calendars.
• If you choose to disconnect your integration with your personal calendar by selecting the Disconnect button, only upcoming events will be removed. Past events will remain unless you manually remove them from the list before disconnecting.
• Several notifications are adjusted to make adding events to calendars easier for participants.
• If you prefer not to sync certain types of items (e.g., Registered to Virtual event), but would like to add a specific event to your calendar, you can do so directly from the relevant event notification by selecting your preferred calendar option. 
  
  
  
  Selecting one of the calendar options will take the participant into their academy, and automatically add the event to their calendar. If the user has yet to connect that calendar, they will first be asked to do so.
• Please note that syncing your Google or Outlook calendar directly from the home page does not trigger real-time updates. For the most accurate and up-to-date synchronization, we recommend using the calendar sync option available within your personal settings. This method ensures a more reliable connection between your calendars.
