AP Connect is an integration capability allowing you to seamlessly connect your third-party email and calendar into Aisle Planner Pro.

This will eliminate the need to switch between apps or manually track communications. Stay organized, keep everything up to date, and focus on creating unforgettable events without all the back-and-forth among platforms.

The current platforms available for integration are Google, Apple, and Microsoft.


What are the benefits of enabling AP Connect with my Aisle Planner Pro account?

Send and receive emails from your business account within AP Pro, keeping your communications polished and professional.

Client, team and vendor communication lives in one system, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Schedule calls, tours and consultations- Clients can view your real-time availability and book meetings based on the time slots you designate, eliminating the back-and-forth of scheduling.

One single view prevents double-booking, allows for easily added event holds, and ensures your team has a visibility to all action items and deadlines.

What am I able to integrate with AP Connect, now and in the future?

How to Integrate

To begin utilizing Scheduling Assistant, you must first integrate your calendar through your account settings. Head to your accounts settings, and click on the Integrations tab. You will see an option for calendar integration. Click the connect button to link your account.

Please note, you can only link one email account to the scheduler. If you need the assistant to review multiple calendars to determine availability, please link those calendars externally in your 3rd party email platform.

Select an external calendar to connect/sync and then click the black CONTINUE button.

  • Calendar syncing is currently available with Google Calendar, Apple iCloud Calendar (iCal) or Microsoft Calendar.

  • Follow the prompts to complete integration and account authentication

Upon initial integration you will be required to log in to your email account and complete a short setup process. This process will grant Aisle Planner's scheduler access to your calendar as well as set the level of permission or access you would like the scheduler to have. We recommend giving the scheduler full access to ensure there are no issues in future scheduling options.


What is Included With Your Account

Each plan includes at least two seats, allowing two users to integrate their email and calendar with Aisle Planner at no additional cost. Additional seats are available for $10 per month per user, with no limit on how many you can add. Seat pricing remains the same regardless of your subscription type.
