Overview

Choose which calendar Bookmi exports to. You can pick any calendar you can edit: your main calendar, calendars you created, and shared calendars you have edit access to (such as a department or team calendar). To keep exported events apart from the ones you enter yourself, create a dedicated "Bookmi" calendar with one click.

When you change the destination, events already exported move to the new calendar.

Steps

Change the destination

  1. Under Settings → Google Calendar → Export to Google Calendar, open the Export to list.
  2. Pick a calendar. You see "Settings saved".
  3. Exported events move from the old calendar to the new one.

Create a Bookmi calendar

  1. Click Create a Bookmi calendar below Export to.
  2. You see "Created a Bookmi calendar", and a "Bookmi" calendar appears in Google Calendar. The destination switches to Bookmi automatically and exported events move there.
  3. Set the colour, visibility and sharing of the Bookmi calendar in Google Calendar.

On the screen

  • The Export to list: your main calendar (with your email), the Bookmi calendar (marked Bookmi calendar), your own calendars, then shared calendars (marked Shared). View-only shared calendars and holiday calendars are not listed.
  • Create a Bookmi calendar: shown only until you create one. After that, you can pick Bookmi again from the list at any time.
  • If you see "Permission to read your calendar list is turned off, so the destination can't be changed.", use Reconnect on the card and allow all items.
Tip

If everyone exports to the same department calendar, it works as the team's schedule board. Before exporting to a shared calendar, check who can see it.

FAQ

  • Who can see events on a shared calendar? Everyone who can see that calendar sees "type: subject" and the location (internal notes are never exported). If customer names should stay private, use your main calendar or the Bookmi calendar.
  • Leave is not Out of office: Google allows Out of office only on your main calendar. On other calendars, leave is an all-day event.
  • Events stayed on the old calendar after I changed the destination: if you no longer have edit access to it (for example it was unshared), Bookmi cannot remove them; delete them in Google Calendar. The new calendar has been filled as usual.
  • I deleted the Bookmi calendar in Google: its events are gone too. Change the destination to your main calendar or another calendar.
  • Can I import meetings from the Bookmi calendar? No. It holds exported events, so it is not offered under Calendars to import from.
