Microsoft Outlook

Integrating Outlook with Hivel involves a few key steps to ensure that all necessary calendars are accessible and synced properly. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

Use an Outlook account with Admin access

Use an Admin account which has at least "View" access to all the applicable developer's Outlook accounts.

Integrate Outlook with Hivel

1. Log into Hivel using the admin account.

2. Navigate to the Settings -> Integrations section from the dashboard.

3. Find Outlook in the list of available integrations and click on Connect.

Follow the on-screen prompts to allow permissions for Hivel to access your Outlook data.

This should help you seamlessly integrate Outlook with Hivel, allowing you to understand the schedule of your team effectively within the platform.

• id: Unique identifier of the calendar event.

• start: Start time of the event.

• end: End time of the event.

• isCancelled: Indicates if the event has been canceled.

• organizer: The person who created or owns the event.
