Sharepoint Calendar Sync with Google Calendar

Question

I recently installed the Sharepoint Foundation 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2. It will be used by our office for cooperation. We will use SharedDocuments, Tasks and Calendar.

I am a heavy google calendar user and I am using an Android phone. Thus, I would like to automatically synchronize all calendar items and, if possible, tasks from Sharepoint, to my Google, so that I can see my work schedule from my phone.

If there is no finished product, and not difficult for its development, I would not mind to do it. I am a .Net developer.

thanks

Answer 1

There is no built-in solution, but development does not have to be so complicated if all the available tutorials are:

• SharePoint to sync GoogleSharePoint Calendar with Google Calendar Sync
• WebApps Message: Sync Outlook Calendar with SharePoint Calendar and Google Calendar

and if you are looking for a paid solution: RSSBus is the way to go.

In the end, you can easily use the generated RSS from the Sharepoint calendar to synchronize it with the iCal format.

Answer 2

Why sync? this is soo 2005;)

What you can do is add loayer to your Android calendar. Heck, you do it in a worldview too! The hardest part is when you want to display another calendar along with one common INSIDE line; see the link below where they seem to have found the correct answer. http://weblogs.asp.net/sharadkumar/archive/2010/03/12/aggregate-sharepoint-event-items-into-your-calendar-view-using-calendar-overlay.aspx
