Connect Google or Outlook Calendar

Connect a calendar via OAuth so meeting-booking campaigns can put times on your real calendar — with auto-provisioned Teams links on Outlook.

5 min read·Beginner·7 steps
  1. 1

    Connectors → Add Connector → Calendar

    Open Connectors, click Add Connector, and pick the Calendar category.

  2. 2

    Choose Google or Outlook Calendar

    Select Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar. Both connect by OAuth — no password stored.

    Choose Google or Outlook Calendar
  3. 3

    Click Connect and grant access

    Click Connect Google Calendar (or Outlook). A popup opens for consent; grant calendar access — the card shows “Waiting for … consent…” until you finish.

  4. 4

    Confirmation

    When consent completes, the popup closes and a toast confirms “Google Calendar connected!” (or Outlook). The connector now appears in Connectors.

  5. 5

    Test the connection

    Open the calendar connector and click Test Connection — it reports how many calendars are accessible, confirming FirstSales can read and write your calendar.

  6. 6

    Attach it to a meeting campaign

    With a calendar connected, meeting-goal campaigns can offer and book real times. Outlook additionally auto-provisions a Teams link on each booked meeting.

  7. 7

    Reconnect if it lapses

    If OAuth authorization expires, reconnect the calendar the same way you would a mailbox — see the reconnect tutorial.

Pro tips

Hard-won shortcuts that keep warm-up on track.

1

Connect the calendar before launching a meeting campaign

The booking step depends on it — connect first so autopilot doesn't stall at the scheduling step.

2

Outlook gets Teams links for free

The Outlook connector auto-provisions a Teams online meeting on each booking — pick it if you run Teams calls.

3

Allow popups for OAuth

The consent window opens as a popup; if it's blocked, the flow falls back to a full-page redirect — either way, complete consent to finish.

4

Test after connecting

The accessible-calendars check confirms permissions actually stuck before you rely on it in a live campaign.

Frequently asked questions

Which calendars can I connect?

Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar, both via OAuth.

Why connect a calendar at all?

So meeting-booking (autopilot) campaigns can offer and place real times on your calendar.

What's different about Outlook?

Outlook bookings auto-provision a Microsoft Teams online meeting link.

Is my password stored?

No — calendar connect uses OAuth, which stores a revocable token, not a password.

The consent popup was blocked — what happens?

FirstSales falls back to a full-page redirect to complete OAuth; just finish granting access.

How do I know it worked?

A “… Calendar connected!” toast appears, and Test Connection reports the number of accessible calendars.

Does connecting a mailbox also connect its calendar?

No — the calendar is a separate connector. Add it explicitly under the Calendar category.

What if the calendar disconnects later?

Reconnect it via OAuth, the same way you would a mailbox.
