Add Google Calendar to Outlook

Troubleshooting Duo

You can add your Google Calendar to Outlook following these steps. Changes made to your Google Calendar will appear in Outlook within a few minutes. Changes made directly to the calendar in Outlook will not sync to your Google Calendar.  Any changes to your Google Calendar must be done via calendar.google.com. 

Install Duo

Rice's two-factor authentication app, Duo Mobile, is required to access your Rice Gmail account on your iPhone or iPad. Before continuing with the rest of the instructions, make sure that you have enrolled in Duo.

Install the Duo Mobile app from the iOS App Store

You can also access the Duo Mobile app through a secondary device (i.e., another phone or tablet) if you already have it installed elsewhere. Learn more about Duo enrollment

Add Google Calendar to Outlook

1. Use a web browser to navigate to calendar.google.com.

2. Navigate to the left side panel. Hover your mouse over your calendar. Look for the first calendar listed under My calendars, which is usually your name.

3. Select the three dots and select Settings and Sharing.

4. Scroll all the way down until you see Secret address in iCal format. Select the copy icon to the right. Do not share the code. 

5. Open Microsoft Outlook and navigate to the calendar. Right click on My Calendars on the left and select Add Calendar -> From Internet. 

6. Paste in the code you copied from your Google Calendar and select OK.

This calendar should now show up. Microsoft Outlook will show changes made to your Google Calendar, but may take a few minutes to appear.
Reminder: Changes made in Outlook will not sync to Google Calendar. Any changes to your Google Calendar must be done via calendar.google.com. 

Troubleshooting Duo

If Push notifications were not configured in Duo or a banner did not show up or only showed up momentarily, navigate back to the home screen and select the Duo Mobile app to finish the multi-factor authentication approval process for the sign in attempt (such as approving a Push notification or copying a passcode for the passcode method).
