Overview

Review these points before trying to move appointments between the Drake Scheduler and Google Calendar:

• An appointment can be pushed or pulled:

  • Only for the preparer logged into the Scheduler (not for an Admin login).

  • Only once - the Scheduler will not push or pull the same appointment a second time for the preparer.

• When pulling appointments from Google Calendar.

  • Your Google Calendar appointments must have a title. A Google appointment without a title appears on your Google Calendar as "(No Title)" and is ignored by the Scheduler.

  • You can select which appointments to pull from Google Calendar.

• When pushing appointments to Google Calendar, you cannot select which future appointments are sent to Google Calendar. All future appointments for the logged-in preparer are sent.
