Outlook calendar not updating in Google calendar

Hi there!

I use Outlook for work and would like to view my work Outlook calendar on my personal Google calendar. I published my Outlook calendar to my Google calendar using the ICS link as instructed. This worked! However, any new or changed events to my Outlook calendar do not refresh on my Google calendar.

Is there a way for changes to my Outlook calendar to reflect on my Google calendar?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    I implemented this Google Script on the Google end and so far it seems to be solving the sync issue (Outlook calendar to Google calendar): https://script.google.com/home/projects/1BOk8MDLbLaHh6SwG1M1tsgNXjkcC-79LE0QoipRuTDxbO3fMVvqoROQD

    Thank you, I have little idea what I'm doing but the instructions with this script were enough to get this implemented, much appreciated.

    No problem. I let it rest.

    Whilst configuring and clicking on 'Test' in the settingspanel I got...

    "
    The format g' returns 45 calendar items within the date range

    16-11-2023 and 17-01-2024

    "

    I am sure it is a good tool, a bit too many unexplainable things.

    Hence I stick to Outlook4Gmail.

    Hello Mike_884,

    With OGCS, I give permission for 5 minutes (from choice of 1, 5, 10 ...) only once, after each computer reboot.

    As for the error report, I cannot help you at all without more information (the columns with explanations are hidden in your screenshot). The very best solution remains to send said error report to the developer, as advised. My experience is that she/he/they respond quickly and adequately. Do not hesitate.

    See the 'Help' tab in OGCS to see how to communicate with them.

    Cheers,

    H.-P.

    Hello Jesslyn,

    No need at all, indeed.

    In OGCS, go to the Settings tab, and see that there are two sub-tabs in fact: "Sync Settings" and "Application Behaviour".

    Open the second tab, where the first checkbox parameter is "Start on login". You can even adjust a number of seconds after login to launch the app, to unencumber the login launches sequence (I use 10 s).

    Cheers,

    Thanks for the above. I am also checking out the possibilities of synchronizing Outlook Calendar with Google.
    Sofar I have been using an Outlook add-on (Outlook4Gmail).
    Each time when started, I get a Google pop-up, saying Outlook4Gmail wants to access your Google Account.
    The access is granted, things go fine from there.

    However, if I want to run it a 2nd time, within a short period, then this is not possible. Google account is 'read only'.

    After a few hours, or the next day, then the Google Account is not read only.
    Nonetheless I have to agree to the "wants to access"-pop-up again. It does not stick.

    Q: How is that in OGCS ?

    Thanks again.

    BTW - when I started OGCS (v2.10.0), it started of with 50 lines of 'DEBUG' - so I stopped

    I agree its a problem with Google calendar account sync.

    On a Samsung (should be similar on all android) go into Setting (main setting not in calendar)-Accounts-Manage Account-Pick your Account-Account Settings-Pick your account again (seemed a bit odd)-Sync frequency and change it to PUSH. Seems to work fine now.

    Calendar Sync works fine on iPhones (but maybe set to PUSH as default).
