Echometer can connect to your calendar to keep the meeting dates of your 1:1s in Echometer in sync automatically.

At the moment, only Microsoft Outlook 365 Calendars are supported. Let us know if you need support for any other calendar providers!

In the settings dialog, click “Link with calendar”:
If this is the first time you link a series, only:
- Follow the instructions to authenticate with Microsoft
- Afterwards, you will be redirected to Echometer. Repeat steps 1-3, then jump to step 5.
- Future series you link won’t require this step again.
From the popup, select the calendar event series you want to link with.

Echometer will currently only allow you to select calendar event series that have an event within the next two weeks and that have at least two participants. Please reach out to us if your use case requires access to more event series!

The settings dialog should refresh to confirm that the series is successfully linked to your calendar:

Working with a linked series

Linking a 1:1 series to your calendar has the following effects:

Reminders are sent out based on upcoming meetings in your calendar
Creating new meeting notes in Echometer will sync their date with the next event from the event series. Changing the date in the calendar automatically propagates that change to Echometer.
Missing functionality? We’re always happy to hear about your ideas!

Existing meetings are not updated or synced when you link a series to your calendar. Only new meetings you create after linking will be synced. Similarly, if you unlink a series from your calendar, existing synced meetings stay synced. You can manually unsync them by clicking on their date in Echometer.
