The Google Calendar integration

I would really like to be able to use this integration and automate dates of appointments but there are two things that make it unusable for me. Please correct me if I am wrong, maybe I have missed something.

  1. You cannot use secondary calendars, the events will be created only in your main calendar. There should be a way to choose in which calendar you want the event to be created, just like when you create one directly in Google Calendar.

  2. You cannot trigger the Google Calendar Integration with a change in the date column. The Workflows Center only gives you three options.

Hey Javier, I am with zzBots. With our Monday.com to Google Calendar 2-Way sync, your items and events will stay in sync and up to date in realtime. You will also have the option between multiple calendars like you explained.

Hello @jparty ,

We have recently released the app Google Calendar Sync which let’s you choose any calendar from your Google account, and allows you to build 1-way or 2-way integration (realtime sync) with them. There are customizable integration rules allowing you to setup event creation only on status change. You can create a new status column in your board and trigger its change when you change date in the desired column, which will then create the event, thus achieving the desired effect which you want.

Thank you for your efforts. It looks promising. I just find it crazy, that one has to pay $20-$2.000 extra per month to be able to sync monday to your calendar. In 2024, this should be standard. I built a private backend little program that does the job for me, until monday catches up.

Hi @jparty,

Happy to know that you find the app promising.

The pricing might look steep at the moment, but we are still monitoring usage patterns from users to finally arrive at the best pricing tiers. If you happen to use the app and like it, you can always send us an email for custom discounts.

And did I mention we have a new custom description builder which allows you to create custom calendar event description from your board column values. See Feature Demo
