# My Calendars: connect or disconnect Outlook Calendar



A calendar overbooked with meetings is typical in today’s working environment. With Sembly integrations to Google and Outlook calendars, there’s no need to invite the agent to every meeting! Connect your calendar and have **all** of your conference meetings captured, or **handpick** meetings to record. It’s that easy!

Calendars give us access to capture all your scheduled video conferencing meetings (whether with Google Meet, Zoom, or other conferencing tools).

> **Info:** Note, Sembly cannot attend any meetings in the past even after the calendar is connected (still no time machine!).

As with all other meetings you’d like to capture, Sembly will join only meetings that you schedule using a **registered or aliased e-mail** in your Sembly user account. 

This article will guide you through the process of connecting your **Outlook calendar**.

## Outlook Calendar

Users can connect to Outlook Calendar upon registration in Sembly or skip the step and connect in Settings.

1.  Log in to your Sembly account: [US](https://webapp.sembly.ai/login) or [EU](https://webapp-eu.sembly.ai/login).
    
2.  Open the dropdown by clicking your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar menu to open **Settings** → **Notes** → **My Calendars.**
    
3.  Next to **Outlook Calendar**, click **_Connect_.**

4.  Set up the inviting setting under which you'd like Sembly to attend your meetings:
    

-   only meetings you created,
    
-   all meetings in your calendar, or
    
-   do not automatically attend meetings (all the meetings will still sync with Sembly with an **_Attend_** toggle, that you can activate whenever needed).

5.  Log in to your Microsoft Outlook account. You can connect your Google account with an email address other than the address registered in Sembly. Sembly will recognize this email as an alias and will add it to an [alias list](https://help.sembly.ai/en/articles/151-email-aliases.md).
    
6.  Accept all permissions and proceed. You will be redirected back to Sembly.
    

Outlook Calendar will now be connected. From now on, Sembly will **automatically** join meetings scheduled in your calendar (according to the [invite settings](https://help.sembly.ai/en/articles/147-my-calendars-connect-or-disconnect-outlook-calendar.md#heading-1-change-outlook-calendar-settings) you chose).

> **Warning:** Every time you make edits to your calendar events, changes will reflect in Sembly. Removing the event from your Calendar will also result in the meeting being removed in Sembly.

## Change Outlook Calendar settings

You can also modify invite settings to select meetings you wish Sembly to join: **_All meetings in my calendar_**, **_Only meetings I created_**, or **_Don't automatically attend_**. If you choose **_Don't automatically attend_**, Sembly still syncs all meetings in your calendar to its list, where you can handpick meetings you wish to record by toggling on/off the **_Attend_** button.

## Disconnect Outlook Calendar

If you decide to disconnect your Outlook account, all finished and submitted meetings will remain in Sembly.

1.  Log in to your Sembly account: [US](https://webapp.sembly.ai/login) or [EU](https://webapp-eu.sembly.ai/login).
    
2.  Open the dropdown by clicking your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar menu to open **Settings** → **General** → **My Calendars.**
    
3.  Click the three dots next to the Outlook Calendar you wish to disconnect.

4.  Click **_Disconnect._**

> **Info:** After disconnecting, all the settings of the current Outlook Calendar will be removed, including Invite Settings and permissions.

If you wish to connect another Outlook account to Sembly, disconnect first and then repeat the connection steps. A new account e-mail will now be listed in Aliases if it doesn’t match the e-mail you registered with.

> **Warning:** If you experience issues when signing up with Microsoft SSO or connecting your Outlook Calendar, please refer to the troubleshooting [guide](https://help.sembly.ai/en/articles/166-share-admin-approval-to-sembly-in-microsoft-tenant.md).
