Syncing Your ArboStar Office Calendar to Google, Outlook, and Apple Calendar

ArboStar allows Support users only to sync the Office Calendar with external calendars such as Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar. This helps office staff keep schedules aligned across platforms. Fieldworkers do not have access to the Office Calendar and cannot use this feature.

There are two ways to sync your ArboStar Office Calendar:

  1. Using the mobile app
