Google Calendar

Once you connect your Google Calendar to your personal settings in Steady, you and the team will be able to see completed events alongside your check-ins.

You'll also see the events in the "Recent activity" section when checking in, which will help you answer the check-in questions.

The total time spent in meetings will be calculated as well, giving you and your teammates a quick way to see how much time each person spends in meetings and the team as a whole.

Set up

To connect Google Calendar, visit your Preferences - Connections section and click on the "Connect Google Calendar" option. You'll be prompted to pick your Google account and authorize Steady to read your calendars and calendar events.

After that, you can select which calendars you'd like to monitor. The sync is not retroactive, so the first events will be visible in your next check-in. (If it's after your check-in time for the day, that will be your draft check-in.)

Event privacy

Steady can only monitor calendars you own and will only sync events visible to others in the calendars you select. If you mark an event as "private," it will simply display the event title as "Busy" in Steady.

Non-standard events, like "Focus" and "Out of office" will be excluded automatically.

To hide certain events from displaying with your check-in, expand the Google calendar section and click the "hide" option when checking in.

Steady's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
