Workaround available Web Updated November 13, 2026Based on 4 user reportsHow we research

Quick answer

Calendar sync mostly fails because of wrong sync type, past-dated activities, visibility settings or a stale connection. Stopping and restarting the sync resolves most cases.

Most likely fix: Check sync settings

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Check sync settings

    1. Go to Personal preferences > Calendar sync
    2. Click Edit next to the account
    3. Confirm the calendar and sync type (two-way to import external events)
    Did this fix it?
  2. 2. Fix visibility

    1. On the same page, review Event visibility
    2. Change Visible only to you to Visible to all users
    3. Only events synced after the change are affected
    Did this fix it?
  3. 3. Clear browser data and test incognito

    1. Clear cache and cookies and reload
    2. Open Pipedrive in incognito; disable extensions one by one if it works there
    Did this fix it?
  4. 4. Restart the sync

    1. Personal preferences > Calendar sync > Edit > Stop sync
    2. Under Synced previously click Start sync and confirm settings
    3. Create a future-dated activity to test
    Did this fix it?

Symptoms

Activities do not show in Google or Outlook Calendar, external events don't appear in Pipedrive, or the calendar view is blank.

Why it happens

  • One-way sync selected so external events don't import
  • Only future-dated activities and events sync
  • Event visibility set to private or default
  • Browser cache, cookies or extensions interfering
  • Stale provider connection
