***

## Creating Events in Your iCloud Calendar

[Section titled “Creating Events in Your iCloud Calendar”](#creating-events-in-your-icloud-calendar)

You can use the **Calendar Events Are Created In** setting to control where appointments are added in your connected account. You can choose from:

* Any sub-calendars you have created.
* Calendars that are shared with you, where you have at least read and write permissions.

## Retrieving Busy Time from iCloud Calendar

[Section titled “Retrieving Busy Time from iCloud Calendar”](#retrieving-busy-time-from-icloud-calendar)

You can use the **Busy Time Is Retrieved From** option to determine how OnceHub retrieves your busy time. This option lets you choose one or more sub-calendars, including:

* Sub-calendars you’ve created within your iCloud Calendar account.
* Calendars shared with your iCloud Calendar account, as long as they have at least Read-only permissions.

### When are iCloud Calendar events treated as busy in OnceHub?

[Section titled “When are iCloud Calendar events treated as busy in OnceHub?”](#when-are-icloud-calendar-events-treated-as-busy-in-oncehub)

* **Free:** OnceHub will not read this time as busy.
* **Busy:** OnceHub reads this time as busy.

**Note:** All-day events in iCloud do not have the option to be set as Busy. Instead of using an all-day event, we recommend creating a calendar event that’s duration blocks out your working hours if needed.

You can connect additional secondary calendars to retrieve busy times. For step-by-step guidance, refer to the [**Connecting a Secondary Calendar article**](https://help.staticso2.com/user-integrations/basics-user-integrations/connecting-secondary-calendar).

## Caching Busy Time for Faster Scheduling

[Section titled “Caching Busy Time for Faster Scheduling”](#caching-busy-time-for-faster-scheduling)

OnceHub stores your busy time temporarily, so it doesn’t need to fetch updates from your calendar in real-time every time someone interacts with your booking links. This allows OnceHub to provide a faster and smoother scheduling experience.

**Note:** We only retrieve whether you’re marked as busy or free on your calendar and do not access any event details, ensuring your privacy.

## Configuring Default iCloud Calendar Reminders

[Section titled “Configuring Default iCloud Calendar Reminders”](#configuring-default-icloud-calendar-reminders)

You can customize how far in advance reminders should trigger for your iCloud Calendar events. Use the **Default iCloud Calendar Reminders** drop-down list to select a time interval that fits your preferences.
