# Set up the Google Calendar spoke

Set up an outbound integration between your ServiceNow instance and the Google Calendar Application Programming Interfaces \(API\) by setting up a connection and credential record.

## Before you begin

-   Request an Integration Hub subscription.
-   Activate the Google Calendar spoke.
-   Ensure that you have a Google Workspace account.
-   Ensure that you have a domain and an email address related with the domain. For example, www.mydomain.com and jane-admin@mydomain.com.

    **Note:** you can only register one email address per domain in Google Workspace.

-   Role required: admin.

## Create OAuth application on Google Calendar

Create an OAuth application on the Google Calendar that authenticates requests to access the Google Calendar APIs from your ServiceNow instance. After successful authentication, you can generate an OAuth token that your ServiceNow can use to access the Google Calendar APIs.

### Before you begin

Google Calendar spoke integration requirements:

-   A domain and an email address associated with the domain. For example, www.mydomain.com and jane-admin@mydomain.com. Note that you can only register one email address per domain in Google Workspace.
-   Google Workspace login credentials created with the same domain.

Role required: admin.

### Procedure
