A linked account is one calendar service you have signed into: Google, Outlook, iCloud, Fastmail, a CalDAV server, or a calendar link you paste in. Every calendar inside it gets its own page in Keeper.sh, and that page is where all the calendar's settings live.
One sign-in is one account, however many calendars sit inside it. Plan limits count accounts and connections, never calendars, so a Google account with eight calendars still uses one slot. The counts are on plans and limits.
What each calendar service asks you for
You connect from the dashboard's connect screen. What you are asked for depends on the calendar:
- Google, Outlook and Microsoft — sign in on their own permission screen and grant calendar access. Keeper.sh never sees your password.
- iCloud and Fastmail — an app-specific password, made in their settings. It is a stand-in password that only unlocks your calendar, so your real one stays with Apple or Fastmail.
- Anything else — a CalDAV server address with sign-in details, or a calendar link you paste in.
Connecting copies nothing by itself. Events only move once you send them to another calendar.
What each calendar can do
A calendar's page lists what Keeper.sh can do with it under Calendar Information, and that decides which settings appear:
- A calendar Keeper.sh can read can send its events out. Its page carries Send Events to Calendars, what a copied event shows and Exclusions.
- A calendar Keeper.sh can write to can receive events. Its page carries how far back and ahead events are copied.
A calendar subscribed from a link is read-only, so it can send events but never receive them. A calendar you own can usually do both.
Renaming a calendar
Calendar Name renames a calendar inside Keeper.sh only. The name at Google or Outlook does not change, and nobody you share a link with sees it. Rename when two services both call a calendar "Calendar" and you have to tell them apart in a list.
Removing an account
Disconnecting an account stops Keeper.sh reading or writing it and frees the slot on your plan. Events already copied into other calendars stay there — delete them in that calendar if you want them gone.
