Take bookings on your Google Calendar

Let people book open times on your own Google Calendar, with a Meet link on every call, and no other scheduler.

·4 min read

Connect Google Calendar in Settings → Call hours or Your store → Integrations. Set your hours in the same place, or in Your store → Calendar → Calls. People see only your open times, and each call lands on your calendar with a Google Meet link.

Set it up

  1. 01

    Connect Google Calendar

    Open Integrations, click Connect Google Calendar, and sign in with Google.

  2. 02

    Pick your calendars

    On the card, tick the calendars under Check these calendars for conflicts. Pick where calls go under Add new calls to. Only calendars you own are listed there.

  3. 03

    Set your hours

    Open Calendar, fill in Your hours, and click Save hours.

  4. 04

    Pick what people book

    Make a call type in Calendar, like a free intro call, and share its link. Or turn it on for a coaching product: on the Coaching step, set How clients book to Eden scheduling.

Your hours and your Google Calendar belong to you, not to a store. You set them once, and every store you take calls for books on them, so nothing double books. See Your call hours in every workspace. See Share booking links for your calls.

Connect more than one Google account

Click Add another account on the Google Calendar card and sign in with the other account. You can connect up to 5.

  • Busy time on a checked calendar in any account hides that time from people.
  • Each account gets its own list under Check these calendars for conflicts.
  • Add new calls to shows every calendar you own, with its account next to it. Calls go on the one you pick.
  • Each account has its own Disconnect button, and Reconnect if Google stops letting Eden in.

Hours and booking rules

These are yours, under Your hours in Calendar or Settings → Call hours. They're the same in every store.

SettingWhat it does
Where you meetGoogle Meet, or My own link (one link for every call).
Weekly hoursThe times people can book, on your own clock.
Date changesBlock a day off, or set different hours on one date.
Gap between callsFree time kept before and after each call and busy event.
Most calls in a dayA daily cap.

Each store sets these for itself, under This store's booking rules in its Calendar:

SettingWhat it does
Minimum noticeHow soon someone can book.
Booking windowHow far ahead someone can book.
Start timesWhere calls can start, like On the hour.
Moving and cancelingHow long before a call people can still move or cancel it themselves.

To take several days off, click Time off next to Your hours. It closes those days in every store. A call type can also set its own notice, window, and days.

What coaching clients see

Clients click Book a call in their coaching. They pick a time and click Book this call. They get the details by email, and the call shows in their coaching with Join.

To change it, they open the same page and use Move or Cancel under Your next call.

If you change a call in Google Calendar

  • Move the event, and Eden moves the call.
  • Delete the event, and Eden cancels the call.
  • Eden only touches events it made: calls and community events. It checks your other events for busy times only. It never sees their titles or details.

Put your community events on it too

If you run a community, its events go on the same calendar as your calls. When you move or cancel one, your calendar follows. If that calendar is checked for conflicts, nobody can book a call over your event.

To stop it, switch off Add my community events on the Google Calendar card in Your store → Calendar. Eden takes those events back off.

Disconnect

Click Disconnect next to the account on the Google Calendar card. Eden deletes its access to that account. Calls already on your calendar stay there.

If that account was taking new calls, new calls move to the main calendar of your next connected account. Change it under Add new calls to.
