# Connect inConcept to your Outlook calendar

Publish the calendar in Outlook on the web, copy the ICS link, and paste it into inConcept. Every morning its days land on the calendar.

## The fastest way

1. Publish the calendar in Outlook on the web with all details and copy the ICS link. Exactly where is below. https://outlook.office.com/calendar/options/calendar/SharedCalendars
2. In inConcept, go to Settings, Integrations, Calendars and click Follow a calendar. https://inconcept.ai/app/admin/integrations?panel=calendars
3. Paste the address, click Check and then Follow. Done.

## In Outlook

1. Open Outlook on the web, go to Calendar, click the gear at the top right and choose Shared calendars.
2. Under Publish a calendar, pick your calendar and set the permission to Can view all details. On busy-only we see no titles. If the whole block is missing, your admin has switched publishing off.
3. Click Publish. The two links only appear underneath after that.
4. Copy the ICS link and paste it below. The HTML link works too, we turn it into the same thing.

## In inConcept

1. Go to Settings, Integrations, Calendars and click Follow a calendar.
2. Paste the address under The calendar's address. A name is not needed: left empty, it takes the calendar's own name.
3. Click Check. inConcept shows what the calendar is called and how many days are in it.
4. Click Follow. The days are on the calendar straight away.

Forgotten where the address is while in inConcept? In the window you pick your calendar, and inConcept walks you through the steps with the screen beside them.

## What inConcept reads

inConcept reads this calendar every morning. An appointment you mark private in Google or Outlook is not taken over. We store the address encrypted and show it nowhere.

## After that

What falls within six weeks and fits your brand shows under Suggestions. You manage a followed calendar under Integrations, Calendars: there you pick its colour, whether it shows on the calendar, and see when it was last read. Other ways to add a calendar are in the [overview](/en/docs/suggestions/connect-calendar).

## If it does not work

- **The Publish a calendar block is missing.** Your organisation's administrator has turned publishing off. Ask them to turn it on, or export the calendar as an .ics file and import that.
- **inConcept finds events without a title.** Set the permission to Can view all details and click Publish again.
- **You work in the Outlook app on your computer.** You publish in Outlook on the web, with the same account. It is the same calendar.
