Sync Your Absence Status With Google Calendar

Sync your approved absences from Productive to Google Calendar so teammates can see when you're away without you having to add anything manually.

Sync your approved absences from Productive straight to Google Calendar. Once it's set up, your time off automatically blocks the calendar you choose, so teammates can see when you're away without you adding anything manually.

Important: Before you can sync, make sure both of these are set:

Enable Status Sync in Your Personal Integration Settings

Once the admin has enabled the Status Sync for specific categories, each user can decide whether and how to sync their status.

  1. Go to Settings > App Marketplace.

  2. Open the Google Calendar integration and click Edit.

  3. Turn on: "Turn on status sync to create your absence events in Google Calendar."

  4. Select the calendar you'd like to sync to, choose which absence categories to sync, and click Save.

    Your approved absence will now automatically block time in your selected calendar.
