If you're experiencing issues with availability not displaying correctly, follow this troubleshooting guide to resolve common problems.
Please check each of these possible issues, so your availability is not impacted:
External Calendar Sync Conflicts

Click on the gear icon to open Settings.
Navigate to Connected App Sync.
Select Edit.
Under "Sync Carepatron events to," check any unchecked options.
Click Save.
Note: Only calendars with "edit-access" will be synced. Ensure your calendar permissions allow editing for successful synchronization.
