Connect your Google account, then choose which of its calendars Kato should sync. Account connection and calendar selection are separate steps: signing in to Google does not mean every calendar is enabled in Kato. Before you begin: select the intended Kato workspace and make sure you can sign in to the Google account that has access to the events. If your organization controls third-party app access, its Google administrator may need to help with a blocked authorization.

Connect the Google account

  1. Open Settings → Email & Calendar. The page is titled Connected accounts.
  2. Select Connect Google account and choose the Google identity you use for the calendar. Check the email address if you are signed in to several accounts.
  3. Review the requested permissions and complete the Google authorization flow.
  4. Return to Kato and confirm that the expected account appears in Connected accounts.
Google connections support email and calendar. Read the requested permissions as a whole rather than assuming the connection is limited to the one event you want to see.

Choose calendars and sync

Open the connected account and select its Calendars tab. Under Google Calendars, enable the calendars you want to sync into Kato. Your primary calendar and a shared team calendar may be separate entries. When at least one calendar is enabled, use Sync now to request a sync. Check any sync feedback or Last synced information shown, then open Calendar in the workspace and look at the relevant date range.

Verify with one known event

Choose an existing event whose title, date, and source calendar you know. Compare it in Google and Kato:
  • Is it in an enabled calendar belonging to the connected account?
  • Does it appear in the expected date range in Kato?
  • Do the displayed start time and participant information match what you expect?
Use an ordinary test event if you need to create a new one, and wait for sync feedback before assuming it is missing. This check isolates a calendar-selection problem from a broader account-connection problem.

Troubleshoot missing events

If you need help, provide the workspace, account email, source calendar, event time with timezone, and the last sync information. Do not send a full private calendar export to explain one missing event.

Understand removal before disconnecting

Removing a Google account stops its email and calendar sync. The removal dialog also explains that synced email, calendar events, and signatures are removed from Kato; nothing is deleted from the Google account itself. Read that dialog before confirming. Reconnecting authorization is a different action from removing the connection entirely.
