The Rocket.Chat Google Calendar app connects your Google Calendar with Rocket.Chat, helping you stay organized and on top of your schedule.

This app provides users with the ability to:

1. Manage meeting invites and respond directly from Rocket.Chat.
2. Receive a daily digest of scheduled events.
3. Get reminders 10 minutes before every meeting.
4. Automatically update your user status while in a meeting.
5. Receive a daily summary email at a preferred time.

> [!WARNING]
> Some features are only available for workspaces running Rocket.Chat version 6.2.0 or higher.

## Prerequisites

- Your workspace must be on a publicly available domain.
- A [Google Cloud project](https://console.cloud.google.com/) is required to obtain the [OAuth2 credentials](https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/15549257?sjid=4957096247730465609-EU).
