Sync your Outlook calendar meetings two-way or one-way with other apps and services


Free 14-day trial with full support and no credit card

Many people keep their schedule in several calendars, such as a personal Outlook calendar, a work calendar and a family calendar. Outlook does not keep these calendars in sync, so meetings get double-booked, missed or copied by hand. This connector updates your Outlook calendar automatically as things change. It handles recurring meetings and time zones correctly and avoids creating duplicates. You also control what gets shared, from full details to simple "Busy" blocks.

How does it work?

The Outlook Calendar Meetings connector lets you keep your Outlook calendars in sync with other calendars automatically. You can sync any calendar in your Outlook account with Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, iCloud, Exchange, CRM calendars or another Outlook calendar. Syncs can run one-way or two-way, and each one can be customized with filters, field mapping and no-code rules. New, updated and deleted meetings stay in sync, including recurring series and their exceptions, so your schedule matches everywhere.

Popular real-world use cases

  • Keep your Outlook calendar and Google Calendar in two-way sync, so meetings created or changed in one appear in the other.
  • Block time in your work Microsoft 365 calendar whenever you have a personal Outlook appointment. Show these as "Busy" without revealing subjects or locations.
  • Share family events between an Outlook calendar and an Apple iCloud calendar, so everyone sees the same schedule on their own devices.
  • Combine several Outlook calendars into one master calendar, using categories to label where each meeting came from.
  • Import events from a public or shared iCalendar (.ICS) feed into your Outlook calendar. Sport schedules, school calendars and booking feeds are common examples.
  • Mirror meetings from a company Exchange On-Premises calendar into your personal Outlook calendar, so you can check your schedule from anywhere.
  • Sync only Outlook meetings in the "Clients" category to Salesforce, so customer meetings are logged in your CRM automatically.
  • Push meetings scheduled in Zoho CRM to your Outlook calendar, so sales appointments appear next to the rest of your schedule.
  • Sync Outlook events to Google Calendar while skipping meetings marked Private or set to Free, so only relevant busy time is shared.
  • Publish selected meetings from your Outlook calendar to a Microsoft 365 group calendar, so your team can see when you are available.

Things to note

  • Attendees, responses and organizer details can be used in filters and rules, but they are not copied to Outlook. SyncPenguin never sends meeting invitations on your behalf.
  • To avoid sending unwanted update notices to other people, SyncPenguin does not modify Outlook meetings that have attendees.
  • Reminders sync as on or off only. The reminder time follows your Outlook default settings.
  • Changes to past one-time meetings older than about a month are not synced. Recurring series that ended more than a year ago are skipped. This keeps syncing focused on current and upcoming events.
  • Online meeting links from other calendars are added to Outlook meetings as a reference link. New Teams meetings are not created automatically.
  • Custom fields and file attachments are not synced.
  • Start, End and All-day fields must be included in the field mapping for meetings to be created or updated in Outlook.
