Do you have a more complex calendar with multiple hold statuses

We provide specialized services for importing your entire Google Calendar into Opendate. To import hold calendars with specific statuses (e.g., H1, H2), please share your Google Calendar with Alex@opendate.io. I will use a custom script to extract and import your data. For guidance on sharing your Google Calendar, see the video below.

Please allow for 3-5 days for google calendar imports.
