Connecting Google Calendar lets Milo check your real availability and book appointments directly into your calendar mid-call. One-time setup, ~60 seconds.
Steps#
- Sign in to your Dial Milo dashboard.
- Open the Receptionist page from the sidebar.
- Scroll to the Integrations card. Click Connecton the Google Calendar row.
- Google will ask you to choose an account and approve calendar access. Approve. (You can use a different Google account than the one you signed up with — pick the one tied to your business calendar.)
- You'll be redirected back to the Receptionist page with a confirmation banner. The Integrations card now shows the connected account email.
What Milo can do once it's connected#
- Check availability — find open slots that respect what's already on your calendar
- Book appointments — write the event in with the caller as an invited attendee
- Both happen mid-call without you lifting a finger
Disconnecting#
Same Integrations card. Click Disconnect. Milo immediately stops being able to read or write to your calendar; the existing appointments stay where they are.
