A little less switching between apps

Your workday meets your everyday.

Keep planning in Wisegent. The calendar connection makes it easier to take your schedule with you.

Your appointments together.

See jobs alongside other events in the calendar you already use. No need to enter the same times twice.

The address comes along.

Each calendar event includes its start time, end time, title and job address.

One link, not a new routine.

Add the subscription link once. Your calendar app then fetches the schedule again on its own refresh cycle.

Plan here. View there.

The connection runs from Wisegent to your calendar and is read-only. Change bookings in Wisegent; private events are not sent back.

The right schedule for the right person

For your company, team and clients.

Separate subscription links give each role its own selection of bookings.

The company overview

The company link shows the company schedule. Create it in Settings → General and share it only with people who should see the whole plan.

Each employee’s jobs

Each employee has a personal link with the confirmed jobs assigned to them. Not the entire company calendar.

Each client’s bookings

Each client has a personal link with their own confirmed bookings. Other clients’ jobs are not included.

Get started with Google Calendar

Copy. Add. Ready.

Add the link as a subscription, not a one-off file import. That lets your calendar fetch future changes.

Google’s calendar subscription guide
  1. Get the right link in Wisegent

    For the company calendar, open Settings → General, generate the calendar link and copy it. Use a personal link for an employee’s or client’s schedule.

  2. Add it to Google Calendar

    Open Google Calendar in a computer web browser. Next to Other calendars, choose + → From URL. Paste the link and add the calendar.

  3. View your schedule

    The calendar appears alongside your other calendars. With the same Google account and the calendar enabled, you can also see it in the mobile app.

Treat the calendar link like a key.

Anyone with the link can read the schedule it provides. Share the right link with the right person. Generating a new link stops future fetches through the old one, but does not remove copies already downloaded.

Good to know before connecting

A simple connection. Clear expectations.

Your calendar app controls refreshes. This is not real-time sync.

Does it work with Apple Calendar and Outlook?

Yes. The link uses the iCalendar format (.ics). In Apple Calendar, add a new calendar subscription. In Outlook, choose the option to subscribe from the web. Menu names may vary by version.

How quickly do changes appear?

Google Calendar, Apple Calendar and Outlook decide when to fetch the subscription again. It can take several hours. Wisegent also caches the feed for up to 10 minutes. For the latest schedule, use Wisegent.

Can we edit bookings in Google Calendar?

No. The subscription is read-only and runs only from Wisegent to your calendar app. Create, move or cancel jobs in Wisegent. Private calendar events are not imported into Wisegent.

Which bookings and details are included?

The feed covers the past 30 days and the next 12 months. Cancelled jobs are excluded. Employee and client links only show their confirmed bookings. Events contain times, a title and an address, not internal notes or invoice details.

How is a subscription different from an import?

A file import copies events at a single point in time. A URL subscription lets the calendar app fetch the schedule again. Use a subscription if you want future changes to come through.

What if a link is shared with the wrong person?

Generate a new link for the affected schedule and update the subscription for people who should retain access. The old link will no longer work for new fetches. Previously downloaded or exported data cannot be recalled.
