Getting started

Requirements​

Before using Notion2Gcal, ensure you have the following:

  • A Google account (required for login and calendar integration).
  • A Notion account with access to the databases you want to sync.

Setting up Notion2Gcal​

Follow these steps to connect Notion2Gcal with your Notion workspace and Google Calendar.

1. Sign up & log in​

  • Visit app.notion2gcal.com.
  • Click "Sign in with Google" (Google login is required since Notion2Gcal syncs with Google Calendar).
  • Grant the requested permissions to allow Notion2Gcal access to your account.

2. Connect your accounts​

To sync events, you need to authorize both Notion and Google Calendar separately.

Google Calendar authorization​

  • Navigate to the Connections page.
  • Click "Connect" on the Google Calendar section.
  • Select your Google account and grant calendar access.

Notion authorization​

  • Still on the Connections page, click "Connect" on the Notion section.
  • Follow the prompts to authorize Notion2Gcal.
  • Choose which Notion workspaces/databases to connect.

Once both integrations show as connected, you are ready to configure automations.

3. Configure automations​

Automations define how Notion tasks are mapped to Google Calendar events.

  • Navigate to Automations.
  • Select a Notion database from the dropdown.
  • Choose a date field from that database.
  • Select the Google Calendar to sync events to.

Filtering (premium feature)​

  • Premium users can add filters to fine-tune which tasks sync.
  • Click "Add filter" to define conditions.
  • Available operators: "is equal to" or "is not equal to".
  • Multiple values can be added as a comma-separated list (e.g., Done, Review for a status field).

4. Run your first sync​

  • After setting up an automation, a "Run first sync" button appears on the Automations page.
  • Click it to trigger your first sync.
  • Syncing runs in the background. You can check the dashboard to see the last sync time.

Subscription & upgrades​

  • Free tier: syncs every 2 hours, limited to 50 events.
  • Premium tier: syncs every 5 minutes, with virtually unlimited events.
  • Premium users can also set up multiple automations and use filters.

Upgrading your plan​

  • Navigate to Account.
  • Click Upgrade and complete payment.
  • Upgrades take effect instantly once payment is received.

Managing your subscription​

  • Downgrades remain active until the end of the billing period.
  • You can download invoices from Account → Billing details.
