I am trying to slowly peel away from Google and my next task is Google Calendar. I currently have a couple shared calendars with other people and I’m not going to be able to break them free from Google quite yet. I have a next cloud server I was hoping to set up to be my primary source but I need to be able to interact with the shared calendars as well. Can I create a group calendar and have other persons, Google Calendar sync to it?

I’m not married to Next Cloud. It was just what I have available. I can do a different setup if that would work better.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

    I have a Google account that I created with a throwaway non-gmail email account. I don’t use the email or the Google account for anything else. I then sync my required Google calendars to that (my partner still uses Google, so does my union and my work), and I sync that account to my phone with DAVx5 and to my computers with vdirsyncer (eventually pimsync, when it makes it to nix home-manager) by setting up Google CalDAV API credentials as explained here.

    I have to use a local calendar app on each device to see my Google calendar with my NextCloud calendars, but it’s the best that’s possible, I think.
