Aventide connects to Google in separate pieces: Google Calendar, Gmail, YouTube, and Google Search Console & Analytics. Each has its own sign-in and its own Disconnect. Connecting one never connects the others.

Google Calendar (yours alone)

In the Business Hub, click the Integrations button (the plug icon), then Connect on Google Calendar.

  • Asks to: see and edit events on your calendars, and see your Google name and email.
  • Used for: showing your events on your Aventide calendar, checking your real availability before someone books, and adding bookings, meetings, blocked time and to-dos you choose, with Google Meet links and invites to attendees.

Each teammate connects their own. A teammate who overlays your calendar sees only that you're busy, never what the event is.

If you turn on your booking page without a healthy Google Calendar connection, Aventide warns you first. Anything that lives only in Google is invisible to Aventide, so a client could book over it. Click Connect Google Calendar to keep the two in sync, or Turn booking on anyway.

Gmail (yours alone)

Click Connect on Gmail in Integrations, or Connect Gmail in the Inbox.

  • Asks to: read your email, send email for you, and see your Google name and email.
  • Used for: bringing your inbox from the last 30 days, then new mail, into the Inbox, and sending only the replies you approve. Aventide's AI reads a message only when you ask, for example when you click Draft a reply.

Nobody else on your team can read your mail.

YouTube (the business's)

In Marketing, open Channels, click Connect account, pick YouTube and click Connect YouTube. Each channel signs in on its own.

  • Asks to: upload videos and see your YouTube account, plus your Google name and email.
  • Used for: showing your channel's name and picture, and uploading the videos you publish from Marketing.

Search Console & Analytics (the business's)

Click Connect on Google Search Console & Analytics in Integrations, using the Google account that owns your Search Console property.

  • Asks to: view your Search Console and Google Analytics data, read-only, plus your Google name and email.
  • Used for: the SEO/AEO tab in Marketing. Aventide never changes anything in either.

Disconnecting

Click Disconnect on the card in Integrations, or on the channel in Marketing, Channels for YouTube. Aventide removes that connection and the sign-in it stored. Google keeps Aventide's permission on your Google account while another Aventide connection still uses it, and Aventide removes it at Google when you disconnect the last one. You can also remove Aventide's access any time in your Google Account settings.

Reconnecting a piece Google still allows shows Google's "already has access" screen. Click Continue.
