Show your own published shifts and approved time off in another calendar. Open Settings → Calendars in Begin. The connection belongs to you in the active workspace; it does not export the whole team’s schedule.

approved time off are sent automatically.


Subscribe from another calendar
For a calendar that accepts an iCal subscription, such as Apple Calendar or Outlook, choose Generate link under Calendar subscription, then Copy link. In your calendar app, add a calendar subscription using that URL. Subscribe to the link rather than importing it once if you want later changes. Your calendar app decides how often it refreshes the subscription, so updates may appear later than they do in Begin.Know what updates
Both methods include recent history and the coming year: 30 days back and 365 days ahead. Draft shifts and time off still awaiting approval are excluded. Editing an event in the other calendar does not change Begin. Choose Disconnect to stop Google updates. Events already added to Google stay there. Remove stops the subscription link; Regenerate invalidates the old URL.Next
