If you have multiple email addresses, make sure to select the right calendar you want.

If you have multiple calendars, select which one you want to add appointments to. For example, you could have a calendar just for appointments.

• IMPORTANT: You can only select one calendar to add the appointment to.  

Next, you can choose multiple calendars you wish to check availability against. That way, appointments will not get overbooked with corresponding calendars. 

IMPORTANT: this is not the same as which calendar to add the appointment to.

If you would like to make your meeting available on Google Meet make sure to click the check box.
