# Google Calendar

> Meetings and events, with live scheduling queries.

Connect Indexbrain to Google Calendar to reference meetings and get live answers about your schedule — read-only.

## Setup

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Integrations">
    Navigate to **Settings > Integrations > Google Calendar**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize">
    Sign in with Google and grant read-only access.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test the connection">
    Ask what's on the calendar this week.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Capabilities

### Reference meetings

```
What was discussed at our meeting with Acme last month?
```

Events — title, description, start/end time, organizer, and real attendee emails — are synced and searchable.

### Live schedule queries

```
What's on the calendar this week?
```

A real live query for a specific date range, queried fresh from Google Calendar rather than only whatever's already synced.

## What Indexbrain does not do in Calendar (yet)

* **No write access** — Indexbrain cannot create, edit, or RSVP to events.
* **Declined and cancelled events are excluded** — including events the connecting user personally declined, even if the event is still active for other attendees.

## How data moves

Events sync on your configured processing interval — 90 days back on first sync, then incremental. Schedule questions also trigger a live query for the exact date range you ask about.

## Troubleshooting

  <Accordion title="An event isn't showing up yet">
    * Wait for the next scheduled sync, or trigger a manual sync.
