# Email & calendar

> Connect Gmail and Google Calendar so email logs to your CRM and AI campaigns can book appointments on your calendar.

Each user connects their own Google account under **Settings → Connect
calendar**, a page titled **Connect your inbox & calendar**. Your connections
are visible only to you. The same page is what the **Connect email &
calendar** step on the [Onboarding checklist](/guide/onboarding) opens.

## Connect your Google account

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open connections">
    Go to **Settings → Connect calendar** and click **Connect** on the
    **Google Workspace / Gmail** card. A Google sign-in window opens.
    <Info>Prefer calendar without email sync? Use the **Calendar only** button
    instead — you can enable Gmail sync later.</Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick bookable calendars">
    After signing in, choose which of your calendars AI campaigns are allowed
    to book appointments on (your primary calendar is pre-selected). You can
    **Save selection** or **Skip for now**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the connection card">
    Your account now shows a **Connected** badge with chips for what's active
    (email syncing, number of calendars). Use **Test** anytime to verify the
    connection is healthy.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Microsoft 365 / Teams appears on this page but is marked **Coming soon**.

## What connecting enables

* **Inbox** — your mailbox is mirrored into Funnel and conversations link to
  CRM records automatically. See [Inbox](/guide/inbox).
* **Email from records** — send and reply to email directly from lead and deal
  pages, logged to the record's timeline.
* **Calendar sync** — events flow both ways between Google Calendar and your
  Funnel schedule, and campaign-booked appointments land on the calendars you
  marked bookable.

## Working with calendar events

Your schedule lives under **My Schedule** ([Workforce](/guide/workforce)):

* **Create events** with the **Create** / **Add event** buttons or by clicking
  an empty slot — title, time, meeting type, link, and location.
* **Smart availability checks** run as you pick a time: Funnel checks your
  working hours, time off, and buffers, tells you "This time is free," or
  suggests the next available slots if you're busy.
* **Sync** happens automatically every couple of minutes while the page is
  open; a status chip shows the last sync, and you can trigger **Sync
  Calendar** manually.

## Reconnecting and disconnecting

If a connection breaks, banners appear in the Inbox and on your schedule with
a **Reconnect** shortcut. **Disconnect** revokes Funnel's access tokens —
note that campaigns booking onto that account's calendars will stop until you
reconnect.
