Sync my inspection schedules with my calendar app

Learn how to sync your inspection schedules with your calendar app.

What is the inspection schedule integration?

The inspection schedule integration allows you to sync your inspection schedules with your calendar app of choice in a few clicks! Once installed, schedules assigned to you will be created as events on your calendar and you’ll be able to start inspections directly from each event’s description.

Set up the inspection schedule calendar integration via the web app.

What you'll need

Take note

  • You can only install the inspection schedule integration via the web app.

  • Once you've set up the integration, your calendar will:

    • Show inspection schedules that are assigned to you as events, up to one month in advance.

    • Detail each calendar event with a link that allows you to start the relevant inspection via both the web app and the mobile app.

    • Hide past schedule occurrences.

  • Each calendar app refreshes their calendar subscriptions at different rates. Depending on the calendar app you use, inspection schedules that have just been assigned to you may take some time to appear.

This article shows you how to sync your inspection schedules with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. You can interchange both with other calendar apps that support subscribing to calendar URLs.
