What does monday.com's native Google Calendar integration do?
It syncs both ways through 3 fixed templates: new Google Calendar events become items, and new, updated or assigned items become events.
Where does it stop?
At those 3 templates. There's no setup screen, no conditions to choose what syncs, only a few basic fields, and no subitems.
When is monday.com's native Google Calendar integration enough?
When the 3 fixed templates match what you need, on items only. The native integration may be all you need.

What does it look like in practice?
- Customer meetings ⇄ Deals board. Calls and demos stay in sync with your pipeline. Personal events stay out.
- Project deadlines → Your calendar. Never miss a milestone or due date.
- One board → Everyone's calendars. Each event goes to the person assigned.
How do I switch from the native tool?
- Install the app free from the monday.com marketplace. A monday.com admin, or someone with app-install permission, does this once.
- Connect your Google account.
- Choose a board, map your columns and set the direction for the sync.
- Changes sync automatically. Each sync operation counts as one action.
How much does it cost?
There's a free plan with 10 actions / month. Paid plans run from $35 to $500 a month, or from $26 a month billed yearly. Every plan includes unlimited users, billing runs through your monday.com account, and every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days.
What do customers say?
“The ability to choose calendars is a game changer!”

What counts as one action?
An action is one sync operation: one event created, one event updated, one item created. If a sync processes 10 events at once, that's 10 actions. Changes blocked by a filter or sync direction don't count.
Do I need to be a monday.com admin to install it?
Not always. monday.com admins, or users with app-install permission, can install Marketplace apps. If you're neither, ask your admin to install it.
Can I use it on all my boards?
Yes. Once installed in a workspace, the app is available on every board in it, and each board has its own sync configuration.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. Every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days, and monthly plans can be cancelled anytime. Refunds are issued by monday.com.
What Google data does the app access?
Calendar events only. It doesn't access your email, contacts or files.
Can I sync deletions?
Yes, optionally, in both directions.
