# Calendar

> View your unified schedule and manage events

Sift syncs with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook to show a unified view of all your commitments—classes, meetings, study blocks, and personal events in one place.

## What You Can Ask

```
"What's on my calendar today?"
"Am I free tomorrow at 3pm?"
"What do I have this week?"
"Show my schedule for Monday"
"Create a meeting with Alex on Friday at 2pm"
"Move my 3pm to 4pm"
```

## Connecting Your Calendar

Go to **Settings > Integrations** and connect:

* **Google Calendar** — Uses secure OAuth, no password stored
* **Microsoft Outlook** — Uses secure OAuth, no password stored

You can connect multiple accounts. Sift shows events from all connected calendars.

## Viewing Your Schedule

Sift can show your calendar in different views:

| View         | What to ask                       |
| ------------ | --------------------------------- |
| Today        | "What's on my calendar?"          |
| Specific day | "Do I have anything on Saturday?" |
| This week    | "What's my week look like?"       |
| Free time    | "When am I free this week?"       |

## Creating & Managing Events

<CodeGroup>
  ```text Examples theme={null}
  "Schedule a meeting with my study group on Thursday at 4pm"
  "Block off Friday afternoon for project work"
  "Create a recurring event for gym every Monday and Wednesday at 7am"
  "Move my 3pm meeting to 4pm"
  "Cancel my study session on Friday"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

Events created by Sift appear on your connected calendar. Sift has full bi-directional sync—it can read your events and create, modify, or delete them through chat.

## Real-Time Sync

Your calendar stays up to date automatically:

* **Events you add in Google/Outlook** appear in Sift

* **Check which calendars are synced** in settings
* **Use "am I free at..."** for quick availability checks
* **Timeblocks created by scheduling** appear as calendar events automatically
