Short answer

Connect your Google or Outlook calendar so busy times there block bookings in RiverX, and new appointments show up on the calendar you already use. Go to Settings, then Calendars, then Connections.

  1. 1

    Open calendar connections

    Go to Settings, then Calendars, then Connections.

  2. 2

    Add a new calendar

    Under connected calendars, click + Add New and choose Google or Outlook.

  3. 3

    Sign in and allow access

    Sign in and allow access. Allow write access if you want new bookings added to that calendar.

  4. 4

    Choose where new bookings go

    Under Linked Calendar, choose the calendar where new appointments should go, and save.

  5. 5

    Turn on conflict calendars

    Under Conflict Calendars, turn on any other calendars that should block your time, like a personal calendar.

Good to know

  • Only events marked busy block time. Events marked free don't.
  • If you see a red banner, the connection dropped. Click Reconnect. This often happens after a password change.
  • Add new bookings to just one outside calendar, or you'll see duplicates.
