Connecting Your Calendar
HintMint needs calendar access to know when your meetings start, so it can activate automatically without you doing anything manually.
Supported Calendars
- Google Calendar
- Microsoft Outlook
Connecting Google Calendar
- Open HintMint and go to Settings > Calendar.
- Select Connect Google Calendar.
- Sign in with your Google account in the window that opens.
- Approve the requested calendar permissions.
- Your upcoming meetings will appear in HintMint within a few seconds.
Connecting Microsoft Outlook
- Open HintMint and go to Settings > Calendar.
- Select Connect Outlook.
- Sign in with your Microsoft 365 or Outlook account.
- Approve the requested calendar permissions.
- Your upcoming meetings will appear in HintMint within a few seconds.
What HintMint Reads From Your Calendar
HintMint reads meeting time, title, and participant list so it can detect meetings and attribute insights correctly. HintMint does not modify or delete calendar events.
Choosing Which Meetings HintMint Joins
By default, HintMint activates for every meeting on a connected calendar. To limit this:
- Go to Settings > Calendar > Meeting Rules.
- Set rules by keyword, participant domain, or calendar name to include or exclude specific meetings.
Troubleshooting
If meetings aren't appearing after connecting your calendar, see Calendar Sync Problems.
