Hosts can effortlessly sync their Vennu bookings with external calendars like Google, Outlook, or Apple. This helps reduce administrative tasks and gives Guests confidence in accurate, up-to-date availability. Here’s how to import and export your calendar using iCal:
Syncing Your Vennu Calendar with External Calendars
-
Export Your Vennu Calendar (iCal Link):
- Log in to your Vennu account.
- Go to Your Listings and select View Calendar for the listing you want to sync.
- Look for Calendar Sync and click Export Calendar to find the iCal link for your Vennu bookings.
- Copy this iCal link, which you’ll use to import your Vennu calendar into other platforms.
-
Import Your Vennu Calendar to Google Calendar:
- Open Google Calendar.
- On the left, click + next to Other calendars, then select From URL.
- Paste your Vennu iCal link and click Add Calendar.
- Your Vennu bookings will now appear on your Google Calendar.
-
Import Your Vennu Calendar to Outlook Calendar:
- Open Outlook and go to Calendar.
- In the top menu, select Add Calendar > Subscribe from web.
- Paste your Vennu iCal link and choose a name for the calendar.

-
Import Your Vennu Calendar to Apple Calendar:

Importing External Calendars to Vennu (Optional)
To ensure your availability is accurate across platforms, you can also import external calendar bookings into Vennu by providing the iCal link from your Google, Outlook, or Apple calendar in Your Listings > Calendar Sync > Import Calendar. This will add your external bookings directly to your Vennu calendar so your listing can not be booked for these times.
By setting up Calendar Sync, Hosts can efficiently manage their bookings in one place, minimise double bookings, and provide Guests with real-time availability.
