# Enabling Calendar Integration

{% hint style="success" %}
**Audience:** Admins, Developers, Solution Architects

**Purpose:** Explains how to enable and configure Calendar Integration, including prerequisites, permissions, and expected behavior.
{% endhint %}

## Overview

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Caution:** This setup reflects <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code>'s default configuration. Your administrator may have customized your layout, so columns or navigation may appear differently. Trial accounts may have limited features.
{% endhint %}

Enabling Google or Microsoft Calendar Integration connects your <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> environment to your external calendar so you can create calendar events directly from <code class="expression">space.vars.entities</code>. Once enabled, calendar actions become available across supported date fields, allowing users to schedule meetings and planned work in their calendar while keeping a link back to <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code>.

***

## Before You Begin

Before configuring Calendar Integration, ensure you have:

* Access to the App Marketplace in <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code>
* A Google or Microsoft account with calendar access
* Permission to create calendar events in the selected calendar account
* A supported browser with access to your Google or Microsoft sign-in session

Keep in mind:

* Calendar events are created in the calendar account currently signed into your browser
* Calendar Integration does not automatically sync with Integrated Inbox or email accounts
* Events are created only when a user explicitly selects the calendar button. <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> does not automatically create or modify calendar events
