DocketCalendar integrates with Outlook and Google calendars. This guide will help you choose the right email account to link with DocketCalendar.
Key Considerations
- Access: Choose an email account that multiple people at your firm can access. Anyone who needs to Create or Edit in DocketCalendar must be able to log into this email account.
- New vs. Existing Account:
- We recommend creating a new email account specifically for DocketCalendar (e.g., firmcalendar@yourdomain.com).
- You can use an existing account (e.g., admin@ or info@), but ensure only authorized personnel have access.
- Account Requirements:
- Outlook users: Must use an Outlook 365 account (not a free Outlook.com account).
- Gmail users: Can use any standard Gmail or Google Workspace account.
Important Notes
- Avoid generic names: Don't name the account simply "calendar" as it's too generic.
- Event placement: Events generated by DocketCalendar don't have to be placed on this calendar.
- Changing linked account: It's possible but requires assistance from DocketCalendar.
FAQs
- Can I use a personal email? Not recommended, as you'd need to share your credentials with others who need access.
- Do all events have to go on this calendar? No. For Outlook users, this email is just a connection point between your Outlook domain and DocketCalendar.
- Can I change the linked account later? Yes, but it requires assistance from DocketCalendar.
