Installing the Google Calendar App in Slack
Recently, Google Calendar for Team Events, Slack's Google Calendar app, is scheduled to be discontinued. (Notice of discontinuation on March 1, 2023)
A notice appeared on March 1, 2023, announcing that support would be discontinued. It seems that there were many protests as the deadline was originally January 2, but it was postponed.
Therefore, you need to install a replacement Google Calendar app.
Terms of Use
Developed by Google and it's free
Installation Method
Installation link: https://slack.com/app-pages/google-calendar
1. Click [Add to Slack].
2. Click [Allow].
3. Since each individual uses it separately, you will need to connect your account. (Since I use GWS, Google login appears)
4. After logging in, agree to the final information provision to complete the installation.
5. Once the installation is complete, the app will be installed in Slack, and a message notification will be sent.
- At this time, enable full domain authentication so that Slack workspace users can also use it.
How to Use
Now that the installation is complete, let's learn how to use it.
1. Select ‘Google Calendar’ (I changed the name, so it appears as ‘Google Calendar’ in Korean) from the app.
- If you don't see it, click the + key (Browse apps) and select the ‘Google Calendar’ app.
2. Click [Settings] on the ‘Google Calendar’ [Home] screen.
3. Scroll down.
- Click [Choose] in [Accounts].
- Select ‘Dream Team_Meeting’. You can add other calendars you want to receive notifications from.
4. Now you need to set up notifications.
- Click [Notification Preferences] to open the notification settings window.
- Click [Event updates] and change it from Off → On.
By changing this, you will receive notifications when meeting room reservations, meeting schedules, or vacation information are updated in Google Calendar.
