Do you schedule all of your events on your calendar? The August Schools calendar sync will save you time by pulling your events into the platform for you. This means no more double entry for your meetings!
August Schools offers a calendar sync with the following calendar providers:
Google
Outlook
How does it work?
Enabling the calendar sync through your August account will enable August to read the events scheduled on your calendar and create encounters in the platform, taking it's best guess as to the template that should be used. August will not add to or create events on your calendar or send invites to participants.
Criteria to pull events from your calendar into August:
Event is scheduled on your calendar
At least 1 participant, beyond yourself, with a school supplied email is included on the meeting from August
Student, Faculty, etc.
Why do the participant(s) have to be added?
Adding the student or faculty member as a participant on your calendar event tells August it is an event that should be documented on the platform. This also automatically sets them as the subject of the encounter for you!
How do I turn the sync on?
Log into August Schools.
On your Board, you may have a notification to enable the calendar sync.
If not, navigate to the Settings page.
Click the toggle on icon to enable the calendar sync.
Your calendar sync is now activated; 2 weeks of meetings are pulled at a time.
Missing an event from your calendar?
On the schedule widget on your August Board, click "Add from calendar" to refresh the sync!
