Sync your Constant Contact campaigns to your personal calendar

Add the campaign information from your Constant Contact calendar to your Google, Apple, or Outlook calendar, or share the calendar link with other authorized parties to add to their calendar

Want to see all your Constant Contact campaigns on your personal calendar? If you use a Google, Apple, or Outlook Calendar, or any calendar app that allows you to add a calendar URL, you can sync your Campaigns Calendar to it! You can even share the link with other team members or authorized parties to help them stay in-the-loop with your marketing efforts.

• Enable calendar sharing in Constant Contact
• Add your calendar to an Apple Calendar

Manually add to your Google Calendar

1. From your calendar settings, click Copy.
   
    
    
2. In the Other calendars section of your Google Calendar, click + > From URL.

4. Click Add calendar.
   
   
    
5. (Optional) To access the settings for your calendar, place your cursor over the calendar's name and click the Options icon, and then select Settings. 
   
   
    

Google automatically refreshes the calendar, and it can take anywhere from five minutes to 24 hours after you make changes in Constant Contact for them to be reflected in your Google Calendar.

Share your calendar with another party

1. From your calendar settings, click Email this link.
   
    
    
2. Enter the email address for the authorized party you want to share your calendar with.
3. Click Send.

Revoke access to your calendar

After you have shared your calendar, you may need to revoke access to it when employees leave your organization or aren't working on your project anymore. Revoking access changes the calendar link, but doesn't automatically remove the outdated calendar. The outdated calendar stays visible until it's manually removed from Apple, Google, or Outlook, but it doesn't get updates as new campaigns are created, sent, or published.
 

1. From your calendar settings, scroll down to the Resetting Calendar Link section and click Reset.
   
    
    
2. Click Reset to confirm the action and generate the new calendar URL.
   
    

After the link changes, you can manually remove the old calendar link from your personal calendar and then add the new calendar URL. The new calendar URL also needs to be re-shared with any authorized parties that still need access.
