Sheep allows easy tracking of your resources, rooms and other Bookable assets via internal calendars. However, you may have a preferred calendar application such as Google Calendar or Outlook.

To do this in Sheep (from the dashboard):

  1. Navigate to Settings > Bookings

  2. From the list find the Venue, Activity or Resource that you want

  3. Click Additional Settings to flip the card

  4. Choose which calendar feed to export

  5. Click Copy to clipboard to copy the feed URL (or highlight, then press Ctrl-C, or Cmd-C on a Mac)

  6. Open your preferred Calendar app

  7. (In Google Calendar) Click the arrow by Other Calendars then Add by URL

  8. (In Outlook) Click on Tools, Account Settings, Internet Calendars, then New

  9. Paste the link into the box (Ctrl-V or Cmd-V on a Mac)

NB: By default, Sheep's main calendar feed marks cancelled and unconfirmed calendar events accordingly. If your calendar app does not have the ability to show these differently, Sheep provides three separate feeds for the possible event states.
