1. What is the use of integrating tasks with calendars?
Using this feature, you can include a link to an URL for your meetings within your work schedule. This way, you and your team can check - in a simple and unbureaucratic manner - the times in which they ll’be busy.
But this integration isn’t limited to tasks related to meetings. You can integrate any class of activity! Thus, you can set any specific period where “I'll be busy,” for example.
In addition, there’s greater centralization of information in a single location. After all, by opening the event in the calendar, you access your task in Runrun.it and all of the available files and guidelines.
To integrate your tasks, go to the Me, after in My Tasks (here are the tasks that you have been allocated). Then, click on Integration.
Clicking on Integration will open a menu whre you can choose the needed calendar. Your options will be: Google, Apple and Outlook. Your tasks ll’be displayed according to the pre-defined times and dates in Runrun.it. However, if you make any changes within the calendar, those changes will not sync back to Runrun.it.
When you choose one of the calendars, the app will generate an URL, allowing you to begin the integration.
