FAQ

Questions about Google Calendar + Jira.

How do I add Jira sprint events to Google Calendar?
Jira Sprint Started → Google Calendar Create Event for sprint kickoff. Schedule the demo and retro events on dates derived from sprint length. Whole team sees the cadence on shared calendar.
Can I block calendar focus time for a Jira issue?
Yes. Jira Issue Assigned with custom "Time Estimate" → Calendar Create Event sized to the estimate, marked as busy, on the assignee's calendar. Forces real planning over wishful estimates.
How do I create Jira issues from Calendar events?
Calendar Event Created with "[Jira]" in the title → Jira Create Issue with title and description from event. Useful for capturing meeting-decided work without manual entry.
Can I update Calendar events when Jira issues change?
Yes. Jira Issue Updated → look up linked Calendar event ID stored in issue custom field → Update Event with new title or details. Keep calendar in sync with engineering state.
How do I avoid calendar overload from per-Jira-issue events?
Only create calendar events for major milestones (sprint kickoffs, demos, retros, releases). Per-issue calendar events bury significant events in noise.
Can I post Jira sprint progress as a calendar all-day event?
Yes. Daily scheduled: compute Jira sprint % complete → Calendar Update Event (today's all-day "Sprint Progress") with the percentage in the title. Visual cue for the team daily.
