Final Reminder: Google Calendar appointment schedules will replace appointment slots on July 18

July 11, 2024

As a final reminder, Google will be replacing the appointment slots feature in U-M Google Calendar with the appointment schedules feature on July 18, 2024. This change means that you will no longer be able to use appointment slots, and Google will permanently delete any existing, unbooked slots you have created beginning July 18. (Only the appointment slot blocks used for scheduling will be deleted. If an appointment slot is booked prior to July 18, that specific event will not be deleted.)

Because Google will not automatically transfer your slots to schedules, you will need to create a new appointment schedule and recreate your existing slots in this format manually. You should do this before July 18 to ensure your appointments aren’t lost. (If you do not use appointment slots, you can disregard this message.)

ITS has also created a list of tips and differences between features to assist you with moving your appointment slots to appointment schedules.
