I am trying to sync Google Calendar with Evolution email client. But I am not able to do so. I tried some of the steps given in web to include Google Calendar and infact I am able to see my entries that I created in Google Calendar

Problem is I cannot save any new appointments entries to Google Calendar through Evolution. Please help me.

With Two-Factor-Authorization (2FA) enabled on your account and/or Google for Business:

  1. Create a new app password for your Google Account (save this somewhere)

  2. Create a new Calendar in Evolution (File -> New -> Calendar)

    URL: https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/<your email address>/events/
    User: Your full google account (user.name@domain.com)
    Check "Server handles meeting invitations"

    Click "OK" and enter your app password, not your Google password.

    Thank you Leon. This is also very useful for **Google business accounts**, to allow syncing your work calendar to your smartphone (e.g. with [CardDAV-Sync for Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dmfs.carddav.sync)) – Noam Manos Mar 29 '20 at 10:07
