External Calendars

Integrating your external calendars with LightStack ensures your schedule remains harmonious across all areas of your life. By syncing your personal or business calendars, you prevent double-booking and maintain a clear boundary around your time.

How Calendar Sync Works

When you connect an external calendar (like Google Calendar or Outlook), our system will automatically monitor it for ‘Busy’ events. If you have a doctor’s appointment, a family gathering, or a blocked-off vacation day on your external calendar, LightStack will instantly remove that time from your availability across all your Session Types.

This ensures your clients only see the spaces where you are truly open and available to hold space for them.

Changing Your Sync Settings

To configure your calendar connections:

  1. Navigate to your External Calendars settings.
  2. Select the provider you wish to connect (e.g., Google Calendar) and authenticate securely.
  3. Once connected, select which specific calendars from that account should be checked for conflicts.
  4. (Optional) You can also select a primary calendar where LightStack will seamlessly automatically add all your new booked sessions so that your personal calendar always reflects your full schedule.

Remember: We only read your free/busy availability. The private details of your personal calendar events are never shared with your clients.
