Google/Android

How do I link the calendar to my Google calendar?

By granting Google access to your Parro calendar, you agree to Google's terms of service (https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=en&gl=us).

It is best to do this on a laptop/computer or tablet. (On your mobile, the calendar app opens by default, and this is unfortunately not possible).

Preparation:

1. Go to the web version of Parro: talk.parro.com
2. Log in to Parro
3. Go to Settings
4. Click on Link Calendar
5. Click on Get Started
6. Copy the link by clicking on it

Linking:

1. Go to accounts.google.com
2. Log in with your Google account if it hasn't happened automatically
3. Click the icon with the nine dots in the top right (Google Apps)
4. Then click on Calendar. If Calendar is not listed, click on More from Google (at the bottom) to search for and add the Calendar
5. In the left column, click the plus sign behind Other calendars 
   
6. Choose the option From URL
7. Paste the copied URL from Parro into the input field Calendar URL
