Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Exchange account
  • Google account
  • Java 1.8

Getting Started

  • Download latest calsync.jar.

  • Enable Google Calendar API (steps provided by Google):-

    • Use this wizard to create or select a project in the Google Developers Console and automatically turn on the API. Click Continue, then Go to credentials.
    • On the Add credentials to your project page, click Cancel.
    • Select the OAuth consent screen tab.
      • Click EDIT APP link.
      • Specify Application name (if missing).
      • Select an Email address.
      • Click Save.
    • Select the Credentials tab.
      • Click the Create credentials
      • Select OAuth client ID.
      • Application type: Desktop app
      • Name: Google Calendar API
      • Click Create.
    • Click Download icon to the right of the client ID.
    • Rename downloaded JSON file as client_secret.json.

  • Place client_secret.json beside calsync.jar.

  • Run java -jar calsync.jar once to create calsync.conf.

  • Your working directory should now have the following files:-

calsync/
   ├──  calsync.conf        <- Generated by `calsync.jar` when running it for the first time.
   ├──  calsync.jar         <- Downloaded from this site
   └──  client_secret.json  <- Downloaded from Google Developers Console

  • Edit calsync.conf.

  • Run java -jar calsync.jar again.

calsync.conf

If calsync.conf is missing (ie: you are running it for the first time), the configuration file will be generated for you.

# Environment variable name containing Exchange user name value.
# If you are using Office 365, the user name value should be your email address.
#
# Accepted value: string.
exchange.username.env=CALSYNC_EXCHANGE_USERNAME

# Environment variable name containing Exchange password value.
#
# Accepted value: string.
exchange.password.env=CALSYNC_EXCHANGE_PASSWORD

# Exchange web service URL.
# If you are using Office 365, the URL should be https://outlook.office365.com/ews/exchange.asmx
#
# Accepted value: string.
exchange.url=https://[EXCHANGE_SERVER]/ews/exchange.asmx

# Sleep on Exchange connection error.
#
# When set to `false`, an exception is thrown when failing to connect against Exchange server.
#
# When set to `true`, CalSync will swallow the thrown connection exception and re-attempt
# on next sync if `next.sync.in.minutes` is greater than 0. This is useful if you are only
# able to connect against Exchange server within work firewall.
#
# Ensure `exchange.url` is set correctly first before enabling this feature so that you
# are able to connect against Exchange server.
#
# Accepted value: true, false.
exchange.sleep.on.connection.error=false

# File path to Google client_secret.json.
#
# Accepted value: string.
google.client.secret.json.file.path=client_secret.json

# A new Google calendar name that DOESN'T MATCH any existing Google calendar names.
# Because CalSync performs one-way sync from Exchange calendar to Google calendar, it will wipe
# any existing events in Google calendar if they don't match events from Exchange calendar.
#
# Accepted value: string.
google.calendar.name=Outlook

# Total days to sync events from current day.
#
# Accepted value: integer greater than 0.
total.sync.in.days=7

# Next sync in minutes, or 0 to disable next run.
#
# Accepted value: integer.
next.sync.in.minutes=15

# Whether to include events marked as "canceled" or not.
#
# Accepted value: true, false.
include.canceled.events=false

# Whether to include event body or not. When syncing from work Exchange calendar, sometimes it's
# safer NOT to copy the event body, which may include sensitive information, or due to work policy.
#
# Accepted value: true, false.
include.event.body=false
