Step 5: Select calendars for synchronisation

2. You will see a list of available calendars from your Apple Calendar;

3. Tick the calendars you want to synchronise with FlyMeet AI;

Tip: it is recommended that you only choose calendars that actually affect your schedule to ensure that you are accurately calculating available time.

Step 6: Two-way event synchronisation

FlyMeet AI integration with Apple Calendar provides two-way synchronisation of your events. This means that all changes in events will be automatically reflected in both FlyMeet AI and Apple Calendar.

How it works

• Events from FlyMeet AI are automatically added to your Apple Calendar in a calendar named ‘FlyMeet’;

• Events created or modified in Apple Calendar (in the ‘FlyMeet’ calendar) are synchronised with FlyMeet AI;

• Changes to events (date, time, description, etc.) are synchronised both ways;

• Deletion of events is also synchronised between applications.

Important: updating events from the calendar in FlyMeet AI is available only if you are the event organiser. Otherwise, the update will not be performed, when trying to update you will receive a message in the bot about the inability to perform the operation.

Create and modify events in FlyMeet AI

1. Create a new event or modify an existing event in the FlyMeet AI app.

2. The event will automatically appear in your Apple Calendar in your FlyMeet calendar.

3. All changes will be reflected in Apple Calendar within seconds.

Create and change events in Apple Calendar

1. Open the FlyMeet calendar in the Apple Calendar app;

2. Create a new event or modify an existing event in this calendar;

3. The event will automatically synchronise with FlyMeet AI;

4. All changes will be reflected in the FlyMeet AI app within seconds.

Important: for correct operation of two-way synchronisation, create and modify events only in the ‘FlyMeet’ calendar. Events from other calendars will be taken into account only when calculating free slots, but will not be synchronised with FlyMeet AI.
