Calendars & RealtimeCRM
RealtimeCRM allows you to sync your tasks and appointments to your Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, or any calendar that allows you to subscribe by URL.
Once synced there are a few things to note:
- The initial sync to your calendar should be instant, but updates to Tasks in RealtimeCRM may take a while to reach your calendar depending on its settings
- Includes only incomplete tasks with due dates.
- Anyone with this link has access to your tasks, so be careful how you share it!
Finding the sync to calendar URL:
The sync to Calendar URL can be found under the Third Party integration section:
- Click on your username and from the drop down menu select ‘Settings’
- Next click on the ‘Third Part Integration’ panel
