  4. Select the email of the Google account that has the calendars that you want to add. Follow the prompts to sign in and agree to the permissions. Note that the permissions are allowing you to use your Google account through Outlook so all of the things that you’re granting Microsoft the ability to do are things that you will be controlling.

    After you add the calendar, you will be given an option to separate your Google calendar from your default Outlook calendar. After connecting, your Google calendar is automatically integrated, which means that users can view your Google calendar at the same permission level that they have for viewing your default calendar. If you would like to turn this off, click the switch next to Include in My Work Availability.
