You can use any of the calendar entity attributes, but here we will set the attribute to message. In order to link the automation to a specific calendar event, we can use conditions. Instead of using the entity state for automations, a calendar trigger is significantly more adaptable, has fewer restrictions, and is suggested for automations. On the connect a device page, enter the code given by Home Assistant. Note that there is only a short time to do this before the code changes. Next choose the integrations tab at the top and click the add integration button in the bottom right corner of the screen.
The steps to set up your calendar depend on the calendar that you previously used. Give your app a name like HA_CALENDAR. Add your email address to the user support email and developer contact information fields. When using Chrome, Firefox, or Safari, look for the padlock icon next to the calendar's URL.

Scroll to the bottom and click back to dashboard. You don’t need to fill in all of the information on the next screen. Next click the button to create a new project.

You can send an email to a meeting on Calendar with Google Assistant on your Android phone. To add or hear your calendar information, turn on Personal results. I would like to integrate her google Calendar only for her HA User – as well as my own Google Calendar only for my own user. I'm Danny, owner and writer of Smart Home Pursuits. I've worked as an IT Manager for 8 years and enjoy using my knowledge to make my smart home "smarter".
How to Add Imported and iCal Calendars to Google Home
I won’t be going over those in this guide, but I will add links to the bottom of this post over the next couple weeks with some automations I plan on adding. I already have a script setup called script.office_writing which triggers my Spotify playlist and sets the desired lighting. So let’s write an automation to trigger these events from the calendar. If you’re new to Google Calendar, this is a quick guide to adding and using multiple calendars.
You can use the service google.create_event to create a new calendar event in a calendar. The integration setup will next give you instructions to enter the Application Credentials and authorize Home Assistant to access your account and Calendars. Double check that the Google Calendar API has been automatically enabled. To do this, select Library from the menu, then search for Google Calendar API. If it is enabled, you will see API Enabled with a green tick next to it. If it is not enabled, then enable it.
Setup credentials
Next, you need to link your Google account. If you have multiple accounts, your best would be to link your primary account that contains your master calendar. Open your website editor, then paste this code where you want the event button to display. In the "Integrate calendar" section, copy the iframe code displayed. I'm investigating using MS flow to synchronize the two calendars. If you already have a Google Account, sign in.

You can share the outlook calendar in Google but it is one way. That will show your events but you will not be able you add events using the Google calendar. To check if you have access to the new feature yet, just open the Google Home app.
You can add a variety of interesting calendars via iCalendar (often referred to as iCal or .ics), a long-standing format for storing calendar information. The simplest way to find iCal calendars is to get them from sites such as WebCal.fi and iCalShare. If you use the IFTTT app, you can access a number of calendar add-ons there.
Think of it, basically, as another access point for your daily schedule. On a computer, openGoogle Calendar. You can only make changes to your calendar visibility from a computer, not the mobile app. Choose your options, then copy the HTML code displayed. I think you should be able to share your Outlook calendar to your Google Calendar by sending yourself an invite. You can use Google Calendar to keep track of all your events.
My biggest issue with HA has been the lack of documentation and the lack of control of the documents. As an open source software system it is understandable, but adding revisions and revision dates on all releases should be a minimum. Schedule any trigger in IFTTT along with your favorite automations using webhooks. When I write an article in the office, I like to set the mood by turning off the main light and switching on the lamps. I also like to play a particular playlist on Spotify whilst I work. You should notice the new event synchronize with the calendar dashboard in Home Assistant.

You view as many calendars at once as you like, or turn them off temporarily if your calendar is too crowded, or if you need to concentrate on a particular schedule. If several people are using the same device, you’ll need to set up a voice match so that the Google Home device can determine who it is who is talking. As long as you have a Google account, then you have both Google Calendar and Google Assistant. Furthermore, calendars from G Suite, themed , or imported from a URL or apps like iCal are also not compatible.
