Scheduling on shared calendars
In the Share Availability enhancement, the person or account that you shared your calendar with will see your calendar under Other Calendars and will be able to choose your calendar under Schedule on:
In the Calendars section of your Mixmax dashboard, you can choose to schedule certain Calendars on another Google calendar you have access to. When you create the Calendar, scroll down to where you see Schedule on. Select the calendar you'd like to schedule on by clicking on the option already selected. You'll then be able to choose which calendar to schedule on from the drop-down menu.
