You can embed a Google Calendar using an iframe. However, there are a few added steps you need to take, to ensure the calendar is accessible:

1. On a computer, open Google Calendar. You can only get the code to embed in your website from a computer, not the Google Calendar app.

2. In the top right, select the Settings menu (it looks like a gear) and then Settings.

3. On the left side of the screen, select the name of the calendar you want to embed.

4. Select "Integrate Calendar" in the menu that expands under the calendar name you selected.

5. Copy the "Public URL to this calendar" section URL. For example, the Public URL to my 1:1 help calendar is: 
   https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=pdx.edu_p6hjlahv1gsmk0e8g6oereldh4%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America%2FLos_Angeles

6. Open some kind of text editor and paste the URL in it. This is just for temporary purposes so we can edit this URL.

7. Replace everything before src= in the URL with: 
   https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&showNav=0&showDate=0&showPrint=0&showCalendars=0&showTz=0&mode=agenda&height=600&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&  

   1. Example: the new URL for my 1:1 calendar is:
      https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&showNav=0&showDate=0&showPrint=0&showCalendars=0&showTz=0&mode=agenda&height=600&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF& src=pdx.edu_p6hjlahv1gsmk0e8g6oereldh4%http://40group.calendar.google.com &ctz=America%2FLos_Angeles

8. Copy the new URL, this will be used for the iframe.

A few notes:

• When creating the iframe, set the width to 100% and the height to 600px.

• Calendars with appointment slots cannot be embedded; they only display the scheduled appointments, not the available times to book. For appointment calendars, use a call to action to link to the appointment calendar.
