Providing necessary google calendar integration permissions

Cal ID integrates seamlessly with your Google Calendar. This integration allows Cal ID to create events, view your schedule, and avoid conflicts, ensuring a smooth and efficient booking experience for everyone involved. However, to achieve this level of synchronization, Cal ID needs certain permissions from Google Calendar.

You should follow this link as the flow for App Calendar and Google Calendar is same.

Please make sure to allow these requested permissions when prompted. Without these permissions, the Cal ID integration might not work as expected, as it could be blocked from carrying out necessary actions like creating, updating, or viewing events. The following explains the necessary permissions and why it is crucial for users to accept them all.

Cal ID needs permission to view your calendar events. This permission enables the platform to look at your current schedule and find available time-slots that can be offered to other people for booking. The software uses this information to prevent double-booking and to ensure that your schedule is always up-to-date.

To automate the scheduling process, Cal ID needs the ability to create events directly on your Google Calendar. This means that when someone books a time with you via Cal ID, the platform can automatically create an event on your calendar, blocking off that time to prevent other bookings.

In addition to creating events, Cal ID also needs permission to edit events. This allows the platform to update events when necessary. For instance, if a scheduled meeting gets cancelled or rescheduled via Cal ID, the platform can automatically update the event on your Google Calendar to reflect the change.

Similarly, if an event is cancelled via Cal ID, the platform may need to remove the event from your Google Calendar. This is to ensure your calendar remains accurate and up-to-date.

For Cal ID to function optimally and ensure an efficient scheduling process, it is essential that users grant all the requested permissions during the Google Calendar integration process. It's important to note that Cal ID respects user privacy and will only use these permissions for scheduling purposes, in accordance with our privacy policy.

By accepting these permissions, you enable Cal ID to synchronise seamlessly with your Google Calendar, automating your scheduling process and saving you valuable time.
