Can I import or export calendars with Google Calendar or iCal?

Learn how to import your Google Calendar into AnnuCal and keep it up to date automatically.

Written by Willem (Founder)

Yes - you can import your Google Calendar into AnnuCal.

Your Google events appear laid out across the full year in AnnuCal and are kept up to date automatically.
​

How to connect your Google Calendar

  1. In AnnuCal, open the calendar menu and choose Google Calendar Import.

  2. Open your Google Calendar settings (or in Google Calendar: gear icon top right → Settings).

  3. In the left sidebar under "Settings for my calendars", click the calendar you want to import.

  4. Click "Integrate calendar".

  5. Copy the "Secret address in iCal format" - it's the last field, not the public one. It shows dots, so use the copy icon next to it.

  6. Paste the link into AnnuCal, give the calendar a name, and click Connect calendar.

Good to know

  • The import is read-only and one-way: AnnuCal only reads your Google events. Nothing is written back to Google.

  • Your imported events refresh automatically - you don't need to re-import.

  • The secret address is private. Treat it like a password and don't share it with anyone.

  • You can import several Google calendars this way, each as its own calendar in AnnuCal.

What about export, iCal, and other calendar apps?

A deeper Google Calendar integration and support for other calendar apps are in the works. We'll share details here as soon as they're available.
