Configuring a Google Calendar for Use in Confluence
Learn how to use Google Console to set up a service account connection to a Calendar.
After installing Brikit Calendar Integrations, the next step is to prepare your Google Calendar so that it can be accessed by the app within Confluence. This means creating a project within the Google Cloud Platform (AKA Google Console) and setting up a service account that may access your calendar. Brikit Calendar Integrations then uses this service account to read and display calendar events.
Enable sharing in Google Workspace
If your Calendar is managed using a Google Workspace account (like most corporations using G-Suite), then turn on "external sharing" as follows:
Go to https://admin.google.com
Navigate to
Apps > G Suite > Calendar > Sharing Settings
- Set “External sharing options for primary calendars” to the “Share all information, but outsiders cannot change calendars” option
- Navigate to
Apps > G Suite > Calendar > General Settings
- Set “External sharing options for secondary calendars” to the “Share all information, but outsiders cannot change calendars” option
