Embed Google Calendar in Notion

About this tutorial

Before diving into the exact how-to, we need to address an important question.

Why embed Google Calendar in the first place? Why not use the Notion calendar itself?

Sure, Notion is an amazing app. But its calendar feature is severely lacking, to put it mildly. If someone were to do a calendar Olympics, Google would win, hands down.

Technically, the Notion calendar is just a database with a calendar view. Google Calendar has several important features that Notion does not.

Email integration- Google lets you add events to your calendar right from your email inbox. If you schedule events from Gmail, this feature is essential.
