Would be possible to have a two-way sync for SuiteCRM Calendar to Google Calendar? or Google Calendar to SuiteCRM?
Yup, if you go into your profile > Advanced there is a section called Calendar Options this should have all this information you need to link up the calendars
If you need more direction on how to link it from the ical url to the google calendar just ask
I already copied or link the iCal integration URL to the Google calendar but the meetings that I created on the SuiteCRM Calendar wonât display in the Google Calendar.
Can you please provide the steps you took to add the ical URL to your google calendar?
Not sure if I have this correct, but here are my steps
Not sure if this allows for two sync?
The meetings I put in SuiteCRM are not immediately showing up in Gmail.
Not sure what the refresh times are
Log into gmail
Select Calendar
Select Cog(options)
Select Settings
Select âCalendarâ from the top tabs
Select âBrowse interesting calendars »â from the near the bottom right under the âOther Calendarsâ section
Then
Top right under âMore Toolsâ
Select âAdd by URLâ
Paste the URL from your SuiteCRM >> Profile>>Advanced Tab >> iCal URL
eg: http://contact.domain.com/ical_server.php?type=ics&key=9613f-54-09-5d5-580c5&email=dave@domain,com
Select Add Calendar
Okay all done, where is it?
Select â« Back to calendarâ in the top left
Now you can see the Calendar reference under "Other Calendarsâ and you can give it a color.
After its set up I can see back under âOther Calenderâ more options for ânotificationsâ
Steps:
1. I log-in to the SuiteCRM.
2. Go to profile then advanced tab.
3. then i copy the iCal integration URL.
4. paste it on the Add by URL in Other Calendars using the Google Calendar
Could be possible Google event in calendar to SuiteCRM calendar using ical?
Running version 7.8.1 on a Debian wheezy server in our office. I opened up a www port and pasted the ical link into Google. Connection was successful, but none of my tasks are syncing. The meetings I had entered in SuiteCRM synced over but not the tasks.
Is it possible to sync all entries in the calendar, or only meetings?
Also, even though the calendar is shared to google, I cannot modify the calendar from google. How can I edit permissions on the CRM side to allow two-way sync with google?
Too bad we canât edit our posts here, right?
Anyway⊠Found another problem with my shared calendar. Google isnât receiving the time zone from CRM. On google the calendar time zone is (GMT+00:00) GMT, but in the CRM itâs -4:00 New York/America.
Iâm digging around in the SuiteCRM folder on our server for config files. Iâd sure appreciate any help in solving these issues.
Anytime this is planned to be fixed? The two way sync with google calendar for all entries of SuiteCRM? That would be fantastic!
Iâm giving it a shot. Itâs going to be quite a project for me.

Is this available as an Installable Package which we can add to existing CRM. As there are no clear indications from SuiteCRM when they would merge this to master and allow everyone to use it, can the files be pointed out so we can cherry pick them to add to existing system.
@benjamin.long Hats off to your effort and the contribution to community.
Iâm not sure where my problem is so Iâm gonna ask here and if it needs to be asked elsewhere, maybe a mod can move it(?).
First of all, I am running SuiteCRM 7.11.1 on an Ubuntu Linux system.
I have read the docs but I have one huge stumbling block, there is no place in System Settings for the Google Authentication(there is no entry below the Proxy Settings as is shown in the docs). I can see the stuff regarding Google Suite but something Iâm doing there isnât working right either as when I select the json file, it doesnât seem to upload, even when I click save because it still says that itâs unconfigured.
Do I need to have something else configured to get the Google Authentication to show?
Any insights appreciated.
Ok, I tried installing benjaminâs github version of this and Iâm still not showing the Authentication stuff on it either. At this point Iâm at a complete loss because I have searched the code and the code for this seems to be there but for some reason isnât enabled or showing.
Itâs been moved. Unfortunately whoever moved it didnât update the Docs to reflect it. Iâll see if I can find time to fix that.
Itâs further down in the Admin page, where Google things have been given their own section.

What youâre looking for is under âGoogle Calendar Settingsâ.
Well at least I wasnât crazy trying it. I still canât figure out why it wonât accept my credentials.
I searched the code and it shows the url as â/index.php?entryPoint=saveGoogleApiKey&getnewâ, is that what I should use or do I cut off the â&getnewâ?(Iâm assuming cut it off but itâs always wise to ask). Iâm not entering a partial URL here, Iâm just wondering if I have done that part correctly as well. If all of that is correct then I have no idea why it wonât configure because Iâve followed the instructions.
The URL from the docs is correct:

Iâm not sure where youâre seeing &getnew.
The â&getnewâ is shown in SuiteCRMâs code for the entryPoint. I searched for it to make sure I had entered the URL correctly.
Well Iâm at a complete loss then. I have no clue why it wonât configure. Iâve followed the instructions and it never says it configured, and unless the calendar stuff for the user isnât in the Advanced profile tab any more, itâs definitely not showing. Hmmph, any ideas beyond what Iâve tried? Do I need to configure the consent screen at all? I did so just in case but still get nothing(though I didnât tell it to verify my domain, etc.)
Ok, well I just discovered that the Google Authentication thing does NOT show up on the Administrator account but does show up on my user account(that is also an admin so I didnât think to look) but it says âThe current API token is DISABLEDâ, so Iâm guessing I have to see why it isnât actually getting the JSON file.
