Cross-calendar Blocking

Aug 2, 2023

Cross-calendar blocking automatically marks that appointment at the dentist from your private calendar as "busy" in your work calendar, for example. This will prevent you from being double booked and will not require any manual work after setting it up. The exact details of your appointment will not be shared, your teammates will just see you're busy.

How do I enable cross-calendar blocking?

  • Open Settings by pressing G then S on the keyboard

  • Navigate to Calendars

  • Select the calendar you like to copy events from (e.g. your private calendar) and the destination calendar (e.g. your work calendar)

  • From now all events (that are marked as busy) will be blocked off in the destination calendar

We're on a mission to give teams more control over their schedule, and believe this to be another great step in that direction.
