Calendar permissions

When you connect your Google or Microsoft account to Koalendar, we request the minimum amount of permissions necessary to perform the following tasks on your behalf:

• Read the list calendars you can access, so that you can choose calendars to check for conflicts and create events.
• Read events from your calendars, so that we can block off conflicts.
• Create events on your calendars, so that we can add newly scheduled meetings to your calendar of choice.

Google and Microsoft each provide vendor-specific means for requesting these permissions.

Google Calendar
