Connect Google Calendar

Prerequisites

Create a service account and invite the account to your Google Calendar

The integration with Google Calendar functions via service account authentication. The service account must be created on a Google Cloud Project that has enabled access to the Google Calendar API in order for it to be able to access the calendar APIs. To enable access to the Google Calendar API, navigate to APIs & Services > Enable APIs and Services > Search for Google Calendar API > Enable. For more information on how to create a service account, visit the documentation here.

Before you can connect the service account to Runway, you must invite the service account to your Google Calendar so it has access to the calendar you wish to use for your release schedule. To invite your service account to your calendar, follow these steps:

1. In the sidebar of calendar.google.com, find the release calendar you wish to integrate with Runway and click the options menu.

1. In the options menu, click "Settings and sharing".

1. Scroll down to Share with specific people or groups > Add people and groups. In the form, enter the email address associated with your service account and select Make changes to events as the permission. Click Send.

1. Scroll down to the Integrate calendar section and copy the Calendar ID. You'll need this during setup of the Google Calendar integration with Runway.

Connect the Google Calendar integration in Runway

Once you've completed the above prerequisite steps, you're ready to connect the Google Calendar integration in Runway.

1. Find the Google Calendar integration module under the Calendar section

2. Click the Connect button

3. Upload the Service Account key file created during the prerequisite steps.

The service account you use to connect the Google Calendar integration must have been created in a Google Cloud Project that has enabled access to the Google Calendar API.

Configure the Google Calendar integration

1. Enter the Calendar ID that you copied from your Google Calendar's settings page in the prerequisite steps.

Runway will sync the release lifecycle events of all active and upcoming releases for your app in Runway upon initial setup. Future releases will be synced automatically.
