# Calendar Integration: Google, Outlook, Apple

As an instructor, you can sync your ActiveNow schedule with an external calendar app. This article explains how to set it up.

## How to integrate your calendar

The integration uses a link. To get it, go to the *My calendar* tab in ActiveNow and click the *Change view* button in the upper-right corner. From the options that appear, select *External integration*.

A window will open with your calendar integration link — copy it.

Paste the link into your calendar app to complete the integration. For step-by-step instructions, refer to the help article for your calendar:

* **Google** → [Add a calendar using a link](https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37100?hl=en\&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\&oco=1)
* **Microsoft Outlook** → [Import calendars to Outlook](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/import-calendars-to-outlook-8e8364e1-400e-4c0f-a573-fe76b5a2d379)
* **Apple** → [Set up multiple calendars on iPhone](https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/iph3d1110d4/ios)

Once integrated, all courses shown in your Instructor Panel schedule will appear in your external calendar app.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:**

1. Changes in the external calendar become visible after it refreshes. How quickly this happens depends on your calendar provider.
2. Changes made in the external calendar are **not** synced back to ActiveNow. To edit a lesson time, always do so from within the system.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.activenow.io/en/instructor-panel/calendar-integration-google-outlook-apple.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
