Calendar Write-Back

Overview

Calendar write-back pushes your MileIntel trips to Google Calendar automatically. When you book a flight or create a trip, the corresponding events appear on your calendar without you doing anything.

How to Enable

1. Go to Settings > Calendar.
2. Toggle Calendar Write-Back to on.
3. Choose which calendar to write to (if you have multiple). Most people pick their primary calendar.
4. Save.

You need to have Google Calendar connected with write permissions. If you originally connected with read-only access, you'll be prompted to re-authorize.

What Gets Created

• Flight events — one event per flight leg with departure and arrival times, airline, flight number, terminal, and confirmation code in the description.
• Hotel events — multi-day events spanning check-in to check-out.
• Layover events — short blocks between connecting flights showing the airport and connection time.

Events are created with the prefix "MileIntel:" so they're easy to identify and filter.

Key Details

• Write-back events update automatically if your flight time changes or you modify the trip in MileIntel.
• Deleting a trip in MileIntel also removes its write-back events from your calendar.
• If you delete a write-back event from Google Calendar directly, MileIntel won't recreate it (it tracks which events it has pushed).
• This feature requires Navigator tier or above.

Tips

1. Create a dedicated "Travel" calendar in Google and point write-back there. That way you can toggle travel visibility on and off without cluttering your main calendar.
