How to Set Up Group Calendars in Sparkforge

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

A Sparkforge Group Calendar is a single booking link that combines several individual calendars. Create the individual calendars first, then build the group and add them inside Settings → Calendars.

Group Calendars give clients one link to choose between team members, services, or departments. Sparkforge groups don't replace individual calendars — they reference them, so you build the individual calendars first.

What a Group Calendar does

Combines several individual calendars into one booking page.
Lets clients pick a provider or service before they book.
Keeps your booking links organized by team, location, or service line.
Reduces clutter for prospects who otherwise see a wall of separate links.

Step 1: open Calendar settings

Go to your sub-account Settings.
Open Calendars under Business Services.
Click Create Group.

Step 2: create the group

Enter a Group Name and an optional description.
Pick the Classic or Neo template for the group view.
Set a group URL slug.
Click Create.

Step 3: add calendars to the group

After creating the group, a popup offers two paths:

Choose Calendars — pick individual calendars to add now.
I'll Do It Later — skip and add them from the group settings later.

If no calendars appear, you haven't built any individual calendars yet. Create them under the Calendars tab first, then return.

Sync with Google and Outlook

Each team member needs a Primary Calendar configured in their personal calendar settings. That's how their Sparkforge bookings sync to their Google or Outlook calendar.

If a required field is missing

When you click Save changes with an empty required field, Sparkforge scrolls to the missing field automatically — or jumps to the right tab if the error is on a different one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I create a calendar from inside the Group Calendar setup screen?

No. Build individual calendars under the Calendars tab first, then assign them to a group. Groups are containers — they don't create individual calendars.

Can I group Class or Collective calendars?

No. Class and Collective calendars use a different structure and aren't supported inside Group Calendars. Use their own booking flows instead.

What happens if I delete a calendar that's in a group?

The group still exists, but the deleted calendar no longer appears as a booking option. Check the group's calendar list after any delete or rename.

How do I share or embed the Group Calendar?

Use the public group URL you set during creation, or grab the embed snippet from the group's calendar settings.

Can I show multiple calendars without a Group Calendar?

Yes. Sparkforge supports embedding multiple calendars side by side without grouping them — useful when you don't need a unified booking flow.
