How Does Calendar Sync Work?
Connect Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, or both — Kandid.pro keeps your interview schedule, networking events, and job search activities synchronised across all your calendars in real time. No copy-pasting, no double-bookings, no missed interviews.
1. Connect
Link your Google or Microsoft account from Settings with one click. OAuth keeps your credentials secure — Kandid.pro never sees or stores your email password.
2. Configure
Choose your sync mode: push Kandid.pro events out, or pull external events in too. Set your sync window from 30 to 365 days to control exactly how much history and future you see.
3. Stay in Sync
Events flow automatically between Kandid.pro and your calendars. Edits, reschedules, and cancellations sync both ways — your schedule is always current.
What Makes Calendar Sync Powerful?
Two-way calendar sync with Google and Microsoft means you can create an event in Kandid.pro and it appears in your calendar — or create one in Outlook and it shows up in Kandid.pro. Your job search stays organised no matter where you manage your time.
Google Calendar & Microsoft Calendar
Connect Outlook, Hotmail, Live, or Microsoft 365 alongside Google. Use one or both at the same time — each provider syncs independently with its own settings.
Two-Way Sync
Events you create in Kandid.pro push to your connected calendars automatically. Choose to pull external events back into Kandid.pro too — it's your call.
Real-Time Updates
Changes sync on every visit, so your calendar is always current. Hit "Sync Now" any time you want an instant refresh — no waiting, no stale data.
Choose What Syncs
Sync only Kandid.pro events, or import all events from your external calendar. You're in control of what flows where.
Colour-Coded Sources
Instantly see which events came from Google, Microsoft, or Kandid.pro with customisable colour coding. No more guessing where an event originated.
Privacy-First Imports
External events are imported with title, date/time, and location only — no descriptions, attendees, or attachments are pulled in, keeping your external calendar data private.
Which Calendar Providers Are Supported?
Kandid.pro supports the two calendar ecosystems that cover the vast majority of professionals. Connect one or both — each provider syncs independently with its own settings and colour coding.
Google Calendar
Works with Gmail and Google Workspace accounts. Connect in seconds with secure OAuth authentication.
Microsoft Calendar
Supports Outlook.com, Hotmail, Live, MSN, and Microsoft 365 work or school accounts. Full two-way sync across all Microsoft account types.
What Are the Sync Modes?
Choose the level of integration that works for you. Switch between modes at any time without losing data.
Kandid.pro Only (Default)
Events you create in Kandid.pro are pushed to your connected calendar. Your external calendar events are not imported — perfect if you want a clean, focused job search view.
All Events
Everything syncs both ways. External events appear in your Kandid.pro calendar view (title only for privacy), and Kandid.pro events appear in your external calendar. See your full schedule in one place.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I connect both Google and Microsoft at the same time?
Yes. Connect as many providers as you like — each syncs independently with its own settings and colour coding.
What happens to my events if I disconnect a calendar?
You choose. Keep imported events in Kandid.pro, or remove them when you disconnect. Events in your external calendar are never deleted.
Is my calendar data secure?
Kandid.pro uses OAuth 2.0 — we never see or store your email password. Calendar access tokens are encrypted and can be revoked at any time by disconnecting.
How often does sync happen?
Kandid.pro syncs incrementally every time you open the calendar. You can also trigger a manual sync at any time with the "Sync Now" button.
What data is imported from external events?
Only the event title, date/time, and location. Descriptions, attendees, and attachments are not imported — keeping your external calendar data private.
What happens if I disconnect one provider?
Each provider is independent. Removing one has zero impact on the other — your remaining connections continue syncing as normal.
