How do I get the public link of my calendar?
🔒 Security notice
This guide will help you make your Google Calendar public, which allows it to be embedded using Calendar Embed & Sync. Please note: Making a calendar public means anyone with the link can view its contents. If your calendar contains sensitive or private information, we strongly recommend not making it public. Unfortunately, Google Calendar does not currently provide any alternative method for embedding calendars outside of their own platform.
Step by step
Open Google Calendar. In the left-hand panel, locate the calendar you want to embed. Click the three-dot icon next to it, then select Settings and sharing.
Sharing settings
Scroll to the Access permissions section and check the box labeled Make available to public.
Integrate calendar
Scroll down to the Integrate calendar section and copy/paste the Public URL to this calendar value.
