Google Calendar

Manage your calendar with AI assistance. View, create, and organize events, check availability, and RSVP to invitations.

Setup

Connect the Google Calendar toolkit to your Google account to allow your AI assistant to view, create, and manage your calendar events.

Prerequisites

Before connecting Google Calendar, ensure you have configured an MCP server in your toolforest.io dashboard.

Setup Steps

Step 1: Connect to Google

1. Navigate to your MCP server panel in the toolforest.io dashboard
2. Locate the Google Calendar toolkit
3. Click Connect
4. You’ll be redirected to Google’s authorization page

Important: The Google account you connect doesn’t need to match your toolforest.io email address.

Step 2: Authorize Permissions

Google will ask you to grant toolforest.io the following permissions:

• View and edit events on all your calendars – Allows toolforest.io to create, update, and delete calendar events
• View your calendars – Allows toolforest.io to list your calendars
• View free/busy information – Allows toolforest.io to check availability across calendars
• View your email address – Allows toolforest.io to identify your account

Click Continue to grant these permissions.

Step 3: Confirmation

After authorizing, you’ll be redirected back to toolforest.io with a “Successful connection” message. The toolkit status will now show Connected.

Understanding Permissions

What toolforest.io Can Access

toolforest.io’s permissions allow your AI assistant to:

• Read calendars: View your list of calendars and their settings
• Manage events: Create, update, and delete events on your behalf
• Check availability: Query free/busy information across your calendars
• RSVP: Respond to event invitations

Data Privacy

Your calendar data is retrieved only when you explicitly ask your LLM to query it. toolforest.io does not store your calendar data permanently; it acts as a bridge to fetch the specific information your assistant needs to answer your questions.

Managing Your Connection

Disconnect

To disconnect the toolkit:

1. Click the Disconnect button in your MCP server panel
2. toolforest.io will remove all stored access tokens

Revoke Permissions

To fully revoke toolforest.io’s access to your Google account:
