Classe365 Calendar is a time management and scheduling calendar service. With Classe365 Calendar, you can add events and send reminders about upcoming activities, so you always know what’s next.

Google Calendar is designed for teams, so it’s easy to share your schedule with others and create multiple calendars that you and your team can use together.

To add a new calendar in Google Calendar, follow the steps below.


Create and Add Events to Google Calendar

STEP 1: Login to your Google Calendar

Go to https://calendar.google.com/ and login with your Google Account.

STEP 2: Create Calendar

Click on Settings ("Gear" button).

Then go to Add Calendar > Create New Calendar

Give the title to the calendar, and double-check the timezone selected.

STEP 3: Import Events to Calendar

Go to Settings > Import/Export > Import.

You can import event information in iCal or CSV (MS Outlook) format.

Create or edit a .csv file

You can import .csv (comma separated values) files into Google Calendar. Open a .csv file or create one with a spreadsheet editor like Google Sheets. The first row of your new spreadsheet should have headers like “Subject” and “Start Date.” Kindly note that these headers should be in English. For the correct headers you need to import into Calendar, you may refer to the list below.

Each row below the header row represents an event. For example:

Subject

Start date

Start time

Final exam

05/30/2020

10:00 AM

When you're done, save the file as a .csv file. Then, to import the file into Google Calendar, follow the steps in “Import events into Google Calendar.”

Format headers & events in .csv files

Only the first 2 headers in this list are required. The rest are optional.

Important: The headers must be in English, as shown in this article. If any event details have commas (like the location example given below), you can include them with quotation marks around the text.

  • Subject
    (Required) The name of the event
    Example: Final exam

  • Start Date
    (Required) The first day of the event
    Example: 05/30/2020

  • Start Time
    The time the event begins
    Example: 10:00 AM

  • End Date
    The last day of the event
    Example: 05/30/2020

  • End Time
    The time the event ends
    Example: 1:00 PM

  • All Day Event
    Whether the event is an all-day event.

    • If it’s an all-day event, enter True.

    • If it isn’t an all-day event, enter False.
      Example: False

  • Description
    Description or notes about the event
    Example: "50 multiple choice questions and two essay questions"

  • Location
    The location for the event
    Example: "Columbia, Schermerhorn 614"

  • Private
    Whether the event should be marked private.

    • If it’s private, enter True.

    • If it isn’t private, enter False.
      Example: True

These examples would create the following event:

  • Event: "Final exam" on May 30, 2020 10:00 AM–1:00 PM

  • Location: "Columbia, Schermerhorn 614"

  • Description: "50 multiple choice questions and two essay questions"

  • Private: Private event
