Google Calendar is connected via the same OAuth flow as Gmail. If you’ve already connected Gmail, calendar sync is enabled automatically if you granted calendar scope during setup.

​
How it works

Nous polls your Google Calendar every 10 minutes, looking at a rolling window of 7 days back → 30 days forward. For each event, it resolves attendees to contacts using a 6-step identity waterfall — email match, LinkedIn URL, phone, name+company — then logs a meeting activity on the matched contact’s timeline. Events are deduplicated by Google event ID so replays are safe.

​
Setup

​
1. Connect Gmail / Google OAuth

In your Nous dashboard, go to Settings → Integrations and connect your Google account. Make sure to grant both Gmail and Calendar permissions when prompted.
If you connected Gmail but only granted email scope (not calendar), you’ll need to disconnect and reconnect, accepting the calendar permission.

​
2. Done

No further configuration needed. Nous starts polling immediately after the OAuth connection is verified.

​
What gets logged

​
Environment variables

These are set at the server level — you do not configure them per-workspace.

​
Identity resolution

Nous resolves each external attendee email against your contacts in this order:
  1. Exact email match
  2. LinkedIn URL match
  3. Phone match
  4. Name + company match (with activity-signal tiebreaker for ambiguous results)
If no match is found, the attendee is skipped — Google Calendar does not create new contacts.
