## Summary

Connect **Google Calendar** so new tour reservations automatically appear on the calendar for each **location**. Outlook is not supported for two-way sync today — use Google Calendar for automatic adds.

## Before you start

- You need admin access and a Google account authorized to manage the calendar you want to use.
- Tours must be configured with **Availability** on the **Tour** page.

## Steps

1. Open **Tour** from the main navigation.
2. Select the **location** you want to connect (calendar sync is per location).
3. Open the **Settings** tab on **Tour**.
4. Find **Google Calendar** — description: *Automatically add new tour reservations to your Google Calendar*.
5. Select **Connect** and complete Google's authorization flow.
6. Return to Kiddo. Status should show connected when sync is active.

To disconnect, use **Disconnect** on the same row — new tours will not sync until you connect again.

## What happens next

- When a family books (self-serve link) or staff **Schedule a tour**, a calendar event is created on the connected Google Calendar.
- If access is revoked in Google, Kiddo prompts you to **Reconnect** on **Tour → Settings**.

**What your parents see:** [Book a tour at a center](https://help-families.joinkiddo.com/hc/families/articles/book-tour) — families book from your tour link or an email invite; synced events appear on your Google Calendar.

## Common questions

### Do I connect once for the whole center?

No — connect **Google Calendar** separately for each **location** that needs its own calendar.

### Can I connect from Settings → Integrations?

Google Calendar setup lives on **Tour → Settings** for the selected location. **Settings → Integrations** covers **Stripe** and points you to **Tour** for calendar sync.

### Will edits in Google Calendar change Kiddo?

Sync adds new reservations to Google Calendar. Manage tour changes (cancel, reschedule) in Kiddo so families and notifications stay aligned.
