Getting Started

Google Calendar

Connect your Google Calendar so alfred_ can detect conflicts, suggest open times, and prep you for meetings.

alfred_ connects to Google Calendar via OAuth — same security model as Gmail. Calendar access lets alfred_ understand your schedule so it can:

  • Flag conflicts on incoming meeting requests
  • Suggest open times when you need to send your availability
  • Pre-write meeting briefs (who’s attending, what the thread context is)
  • Find mutual availability across your calendar and others you share with

How to connect

  1. Settings → Connected Accounts
  2. Click Connect Google Calendar
  3. Sign in to Google and approve the permissions screen
  4. Calendar sync starts immediately — past 30 days + future events appear within seconds

What permissions does alfred_ request?

  • Read events on calendars you select
  • Create / edit events when you ask alfred_ to schedule, reschedule, or cancel

You can connect alfred_ to read-only calendars (e.g., a shared team calendar) without granting write access.

Multiple calendars

Most people have several calendars (personal, work, family, project-specific). Pick which ones alfred_ should consider when computing your availability — Settings → Calendars.

Revoking access

myaccount.google.com/permissions → remove alfred_, or remove via Settings → Connected Accounts.
