So I have yet to find an easy way to directly have all my google calendar events listed in coda and vice-versa. It doesn’t really seem possible.

I can manually push events to google, or fetch specific events, but I can’t have it “sync” my google calendar to my coda calendar database.

I tried using Zapier, but it is just creating an infinite loop because I want it to go both ways. and I cannot prevent it from re-fetching events it just made.

The only way I see it as able to work right now is just to have it go one way.

We don’t have real time sync between the two at the moment.

As Zapier has a circular dependency you could work around by

1. Doing an hourly sync from Google Calendars to Coda using the Calendar pack and a button as detailed in this article - [Pulling in data from Google Calendar](https://connect.superhuman.com/t/pulling-in-data-from-google-calendar/3582/4)
2. Having a new table where you enter new events in Coda and a button that copies it over to your calendar only if the item does not exist is a duplicate and triggers Zapier to add it to GCal.

I know a little convoluted but doable till we get to it.

Is there a plan to add calendar sync?

@mallika  
Do you plan to add calendar two-way sync ?

@Albert_Leonhart request packs table access here: [https://connect.superhuman.com/t/sign-up-for-beta-access-to-packs-tables](https://connect.superhuman.com/t/sign-up-for-beta-access-to-packs-tables)

Allows you to easily create a sync between G Calendar and Coda. I’m using it, although not extensively. I’m sure with some trial and error you can get it to fit your needs.
