> How to set up a service account for Google Calendar and connect it to Nora.

Google Calendar integrations let your agents read, create, and update events.

## Where to apply for credentials

Same flow as [Google Drive](/guides/integrations/google-drive) and [Google Sheets](/guides/integrations/google-sheets):

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a service account in GCP">
    [console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts](https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts) → Create Service Account → generate a JSON key.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable the Calendar API">
    GCP Console → APIs & Services → Library → Google Calendar API → Enable.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share each calendar with the SA">
    Open Google Calendar → calendar settings → **Share with specific people** → add the SA's `client_email`. Pick the permission level (Make changes to events, etc.).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Connect in Nora

Paste the JSON, optionally set the calendar ID (`primary` or a calendar's ID from its settings page).

## MCP server

No official Google Calendar MCP server today.
