The Google Calendar connector lets Claude read your calendar so it can answer questions about your meetings, attendees, and availability. It’s available on Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans. On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner or Primary Owner enables it for the organization before members can connect. By the end of this page you have connected your Google account and asked Claude a first question about your schedule. Claude reads your calendar only; it can’t create or change events or send invitations.
If your organization uses Outlook or Teams calendars, see Microsoft 365 instead.

Connect Google Calendar

You connect Google Calendar once from your connector settings, and Claude can then read your calendar in any conversation where you turn the connector on.
1

Open your connectors

Go to Customize > Connectors in claude.ai. Customize is the page that holds your connectors, skills, and plugins.
2

Connect Google Calendar

Find Google Calendar in the list and select Connect.
3

Sign in to Google

Sign in to your Google account and grant the requested permissions.
When the connection succeeds, the Connect button on the Google Calendar connector changes to Disconnect. On Team and Enterprise plans, Google Calendar doesn’t appear in your connector list until an Owner or Primary Owner enables it for your organization. For the full walkthrough, including troubleshooting, see Get started with connectors.

Try the connector

In a conversation, select + at the lower left of the message box, select Connectors, and turn on Google Calendar. Then ask a question about your schedule. Claude detects when calendar data is needed and reads your calendar to answer. For example, ask Claude:
  • What meetings do I have tomorrow?
  • When is my next meeting with the product team?
  • Do I have any conflicts next week?
  • Who’s attending the budget review meeting?
Claude’s answer includes citations that show which calendar events it used, with links to the original events where applicable. You can follow up in the same conversation to ask about attendees, event timing and duration, or related meetings and patterns.

Privacy and data handling

You authenticate directly with your Google account, and Claude’s access follows these rules:
  • Claude accesses only data from the Google account you connected
  • Claude reads your calendar only when your request calls for it
  • Claude retrieves the minimum information needed to answer your question
  • Your existing calendar permissions apply, so Claude can search only the calendars you can access

Limitations

The connector is read-only:
  • Claude can’t create, modify, or delete calendar events
  • Claude can’t send calendar invitations
  • Claude can search only the calendars you have access to
