Auto-Sync events with existing Google/Apple/Microsoft Calendars (Google Calendar released)

Clients already live and work inside their personal calendar apps. Could we give them the ability to auto-sync their public facing website calendars right within these apps (Google, iCal, Outlook)? It would save them the redundancy of having to manually enter events into the Elfsight widget.

To migrate from other calendar app, importing ics file would be super useful.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for adding your idea!

I do see your point and I understand how easy it would be to have an importing option. We’ll try to consider this possibility for our future updates.

Thank you for helping us!

It would be great if the events calendar could take a feed, such as the public calendar, ICS from. Google, 365 etc. Allowing combined sources, or individual

Hi Riz,

Thank you for submitting your request!

Your idea is really nice, however, I have to say that it might be time-consuming as well. We’ll try to think about the possible option in our future updates, though.

And if you have any details in mind, or would love to see particular options, please share your thoughts in the comments here. It will be a great help :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot for helping us!

Hello folks!

Thanks for adding the idea and for your comments!

We’re truly sorry that this feature hasn’t been released yet. We totally understand how needed and useful it would be so we do get your frustration.

Although this very feature is not an easy thing to implement, we will do the best we can to speed up the process and release it in one of the nearest updates.

Since everything depends on our developers’ overall load, I’m afraid I’m not able to provide more specific info, I’m really sorry.

We do bear this idea in mind so please, don’t think it’s been neglected.

Thank you so much for your understanding!

Dear folks,

Since we have two similar requests regarding the same functionality, I’m duplicating this update here as well:

We totally understand how needed and wanted this feature is, and I’m so very sorry that it hasn’t been released yet.

Much as we’d love to include it, I’m afraid it appeared to be a somewhat more arduous task than we had expected, and we’re still thinking about the best ways.

We see that this feature has got a lot of votes and you, Elfsight people, really need this option, and we’ll do the best we can to pay a closer attention to this request.

I’ve already been in touch with our Dev Team, and although I’m afraid this feature is unlikely to be released within Q2, we’ll do everything possible to add it to Q3 roadmap.

We’re really sorry that we’re making you wait for so long, and we do have a strong intention to get back to this request as soon as we can.

Thank you so much for your understanding! :pray:t2:

make your event calendar sync properly with calendars - a two way sync, not just one way, as you have it now. all your competitors do this at the same price point. you won’t attact more useres if you don’t make this a feature - and it’s very easy to do.

The Calendar is useless without an easy way to update it. I can’t have team members come in to ElfSight…

@Yaron thanks a lot for your comment!

I totally get you, and I’m happy to say that these days we’re considering an option to share access to your Elfsight account with others.

You can find the discussion here: Feature Discussion: Share access to your Elfsight account

If you’ve got anything to add, don’t hesitate to do so there :slight_smile:

The ability to synchronize and integrate the events calendar with Google, Microsoft or any other calendar service would be significantly helpful.
