Import events to Google Calendar

Created by Johnny Campbell, Modified on Wed, 20 Jul, 2022 at 10:31 AM by Johnny Campbell

You can transfer your events from a different calendar application or Google Account to Google Calendar.

When you import an event, guests and conference data for that event are not imported. 


Step 1: Export events

Export your events as a file that you can import into Google. Choose one of these options


 

 


Step 2: Import events into Google Calendar

After you export your events, you can import them into Google Calendar. You can import with ICS and CSV files on a computer. 


  1. Open Google Calendar.
  2. In the top right, click Settings Settings and then Settings.
  3. In the menu on the left, click Import & Export.
  4. Click Select file from your computer and select the file you exported. The file should end in ".ics" or ".csv."
  5.  Choose which calendar to add the imported events to.    
    • By default, events are imported into your primary calendar.
  6. Click Import.
  7. If you have a .zip file, find it on your computer and open it. You'll find .ics files for each of your calendars. Take the individual files out of the .zip file, and import each .ics file individually.

If you import repeat events from a .csv file, they might not show up that way. They'll be on your calendar as a series of one-time events.
