Granola syncs with your Google or Microsoft/Outlook calendar to notify you about upcoming meetings and to generate better meeting notes using context from the meeting details and attendees. These things make a big difference to the experience you’ll have when using Granola, so here’s how to make sure it’s set up correctly. Coming up section Upcoming meetings for the next 7 days will be shown in the Coming up section of the app. By default, we show 5 meetings to keep the app tidy, but you can click “Show more” to see additional meetings. Any changes made to events on your calendar should be reflected in Granola within a few minutes. Events that you’ve declined, or calendar entries that aren’t events (like Out of Office, Focus Time or Working Location blocks) won’t be displayed in Granola.

Using multiple calendars

Your primary calendar in Google or Microsoft/Outlook is synced by default. You can toggle on any additional calendars in Settings. To access calendar settings:
  1. Click on your workspace name in the bottom-left corner of the app
  2. Click Settings
  3. Select Calendar from the sidebar
Workspace menu From here, you can toggle which calendars are visible in Granola and configure how meetings appear in the Coming up section. Calendar settings If you’re using Granola on iOS, you’ll need to make these changes in our macOS or Windows app, and they’ll be synced to Granola on iOS.

Calendars from other accounts

If you have events in calendars from other accounts, you’ll need to share these with the Google or Microsoft account you’re using to log in to Granola. For Google Calendar, you can share calendars from another account by following the steps here. For Microsoft/Outlook, you can share your calendar using these instructions. Just share the calendars with the account that you log into Granola with, and wait a few minutes for the events to sync over. You’ll need to select “See all event details” (Google) or equivalent permissions (Microsoft) when sharing a calendar for Granola to be able to sync your meetings. Google Calendar sharing permissions We don’t currently support Apple Calendar, only Google and Microsoft/Outlook.
