Schedulista offers a number of integrations with other software and services to aid with your business. To help manage your availability, you can enable two-way synchronization with your Google Calendar account to import calendar events.
Events from imported calendars can help block out time on your Schedulista calendar when you are unavailable to offer services.

Calendars available for import
The sync allows you to import any of the calendars listed under the My calendars section of the menu on your Google Calendar account.
Note: Calendars listed under the 'Other calendars' section of the menu
on Google Calendar cannot be shared in the sync because these
calendars are not owned by your Google Calendar account. They are
shared or subscribed to from other sources and have limitations on
being shared from your account to other accounts or other calendars.
These calendars will not appear in the list of calendars to import.
The Google Calendar mobile app does not separate calendars into these two sections; everything is listed alphabetically. Make sure to check your Google Calendar account on the web if you don't see a calendar listed in the Google Calendar mobile app on the list of available calendars to import in Schedulista.
Note about Google Calendar event status
Google Calendar events can be set to Free or Busy status. If you want a Google event to block out time in Schedulista, you will want to set it as Busy.
