Connect more calendars to Sembly (Apple, Yahoo and others)

To connect your Sembly account with a second Google and Outlook Calendars or another calendar, use the Other Calendars feature. This option allows you to connect a single calendar by providing its URL.

The Other Calendars feature supports calendars that use the iCalendar standard (.ics). Popular options include Apple (iCloud) Calendar, Outlook, Yahoo Calendar, Zoho Calendar, and Google Calendar. To ensure compatibility, verify that your calendar supports the .ics format.

For help connecting multiple Google Calendars, check out our guide here.

Calendars give us access to capture all your scheduled video conferencing meetings in Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Webex.

Note, Sembly cannot attend any meetings in the past even after the calendar is connected (still no time machine!).

As with all other meetings you’d like to capture, Sembly will join only meetings that you schedule using a registered or aliased e-mail in your Sembly user account. 

This article will guide you through the process of connecting to other calendars.
