That’s it — your account is now connected to Google Calendar.

How to connect a specific Google Calendar with Bookla

  1. Click "+ Add Connection"
  2. Select the resource
  3. Select the calendar
  4. Choose whether events should sync and if you want to create video calls
note

"Create video calls" means that a Google Meet link will automatically be added when a client makes a reservation. This is useful if you use Bookla for online demo calls or meetings.

How the Google Calendar connection works

The Google Calendar connection allows you to sync events between Bookla and your calendar.

  • When a client books an appointment, the event is automatically added to your selected Google Calendar
  • If you already have an event scheduled in Google Calendar, that time slot will be unavailable for booking in Bookla

Conclusion

You have now learned how to set up and use the Google Calendar integration in Bookla.
This feature helps you manage your schedule more efficiently by keeping your bookings and calendar events synchronized automatically.

By using this integration, you can avoid double bookings and streamline your scheduling process, especially for online meetings and client appointments.
