Calendar Sync Not Working

Calendar Sync Troubleshooting

Shifts not appearing?

  • Google Calendar can take up to 24 hours for the first sync
  • Make sure you used the correct URL (HTTP for Google/Outlook, webcal for Apple)
  • Check that your shifts are in Confirmed status

"Open in Google Calendar" button shows "Unable to add calendar"?

  • This one-click button can occasionally be unreliable depending on your browser/account state
  • Fall back to the manual method: copy the Google & Microsoft URL, then in Google Calendar go to Settings → Add calendar → From URL, paste it, and click Add calendar

"Open in Outlook" button didn't add the calendar automatically?

  • That's expected — Microsoft doesn't support pre-filling the URL via a link, so the button only opens Outlook's Add Calendar page
  • Copy the Google & Microsoft URL first, then paste it there under Add calendar → From internet

Calendar stopped updating?

  • Your calendar token may have been regenerated
  • Go to My ShiftsLive Calendar Sync and re-copy the URL
  • Remove the old subscription and add the new one

Wrong times?

  • Calendar apps should convert automatically to your local timezone
  • Check your calendar app's timezone settings

Need a fresh start?

  • Go to My ShiftsLive Calendar Sync
  • Click Regenerate Token to get a new link
  • Remove the old subscription from your calendar app
  • Add the new link
