About Google Calendar Integration

The Paxform Google Calendar integration streamlines appointment scheduling and event management by automatically creating calendar entries from form submissions. Whether customers are booking consultations, employees are requesting meetings, or participants are registering for events—every submission can generate a properly scheduled calendar event with all relevant details.

This integration is essential for service-based businesses, healthcare providers, educational institutions, and any organization that schedules appointments or events through forms. By eliminating the back-and-forth of manual scheduling and automatic event creation, you reduce no-shows, prevent double-bookings, and ensure everyone has accurate calendar information the moment a form is submitted.

How it Works

  • Connect Your Google Account

Authenticate Paxform with your Google Calendar using OAuth 2.0. Grant permissions to create events on designated calendars while maintaining security over your calendar data.

  • Configure Event Templates

Define how form submissions translate to calendar events. Map form fields to event titles, descriptions, locations, and attendee lists. Configure duration, reminder settings, and calendar selection.

  • Set Up Scheduling Rules

Determine when events are created—immediately upon submission, after approval, or based on date/time fields in the form. Handle timezone conversions automatically for global scheduling.

  • Automatic Event Creation

When forms are submitted, Paxform generates Google Calendar events with complete information, sends invitations to relevant attendees, and manages the entire scheduling process automatically.
