Infomaniak kSuite ↔ Google
Sync Infomaniak kSuite and Google Calendar
kSuite for the privacy-minded Swiss work world, Google for everything else – Kalender Sync keeps both in sync automatically, one- or two-way and with hosting that never leaves the EU.
No credit card · set up in under 5 minutes
Infomaniak kSuite is the Swiss suite alternative to Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 – popular with everyone who deliberately keeps their data in Switzerland. Many use kSuite for work and a Google calendar alongside it for clients, clubs or private appointments. An automatic sync was missing so far – kSuite speaks no OAuth, and generic solutions ignore the privacy requirement.
Kalender Sync connects kSuite over Infomaniak's official CalDAV endpoint with Google over OAuth and keeps both in sync. Per connection you choose the direction and how much is visible – consistently privacy-first. kSuite data stays in Switzerland, our connection logs in Germany. No US provider is involved.
Why connect
Why sync Infomaniak kSuite with Google?
People who run Infomaniak kSuite deliberately keep their data in Switzerland – freelancers, agencies and Swiss SMEs who chose against Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. Everyday life is rarely that tidy, though: a Google calendar runs alongside it for clubs, for clients who work with Google invites, for family life or a side project. Without a sync you live in two separate scheduling worlds – and sooner or later you book two things into the same slot. Connect both calendars and Google shows when your kSuite calendar is busy, and the other way round – without giving up the privacy standard you picked Infomaniak for.
How it works
In sync in 3 steps
Create an app password in kSuite
In kSuite, under Security, create an application-specific password. We use only Infomaniak's official CalDAV endpoint – no unofficial workarounds.
Connect kSuite & Google
In the Kalender Sync app, enter your kSuite email + the app password (CalDAV) and sign in with Google (OAuth). Both connections are verified immediately.
Choose direction & visibility
Set whether it runs kSuite → Google, Google → kSuite or both ways – and whether only "busy", title + time or full details are transferred.

One- or two-way
You choose the direction
Set, per connection, whether it mirrors one way only (e.g. Infomaniak kSuite → Google) or both calendars keep each other up to date (two-way sync). With two-way, a new event in Infomaniak kSuite automatically lands in Google – and vice versa.
Privacy
You decide what's visible
Per sync you pick one of three visibility levels: busy only, title + time, or full event details. Free/Busy is just the data-minimal default, not the ceiling – ideal when your Infomaniak kSuite and Google calendars carry different levels of confidentiality. You can even give blocked slots a custom name.
Connection & security
How Infomaniak kSuite and Google connect
Google connects via OAuth 2.0 (a token instead of a password, calendar scopes only). Infomaniak kSuite runs – like Apple – over CalDAV with an app-specific password you generate yourself in kSuite; we never see your actual kSuite password, and the app password is stored encrypted (ChaCha20-Poly1305). Important for compliance: kSuite calendar data stays in Infomaniak's Swiss data centre, our own connection logs at Hetzner in Germany (Falkenstein) – no US cloud provider is involved. Google changes arrive via webhook within seconds; the kSuite CalDAV side is synced every 5 minutes.
Native tools vs. Kalender Sync
Connecting kSuite and Google – there is no native way
Infomaniak exposes calendars over CalDAV only and offers no native direct sync to Google – and Google, in turn, speaks no CalDAV for third-party accounts. At most you can add an Infomaniak calendar to Google as a read-only iCal subscription: it shows events with a noticeable delay, refreshes deleted entries unreliably and runs in one direction only. Kalender Sync closes exactly that gap – it connects the kSuite CalDAV side with Google over OAuth into a true two-way sync where changes land on both sides and you decide per connection how much is visible.
When something breaks
Common pitfalls — and the fix
My app password is not accepted – what now?
Check that you really entered the app password generated in kSuite's security settings, not your normal Infomaniak account password – the latter is deliberately rejected for CalDAV access. Paste the app password fresh and without spaces. If you revoked it in the Infomaniak Manager, simply create a new one and enter it again.
The CalDAV connection to kSuite fails.
When no connection is established it is usually the login identifier: some Infomaniak setups expect the sync username (e.g. abc12345) instead of the email address – you find both in the Infomaniak Manager. Kalender Sync only ever uses Infomaniak's official CalDAV endpoint; a VPN or a firewall that blocks WebDAV can also break the connection test.
Events appear twice in Google.
Duplicates almost always show up when the same calendar is also still added to Google manually as an iCal subscription, or when source and target calendars got swapped. Let Kalender Sync write into a dedicated target calendar and remove any parallel legacy subscriptions – then every event stays exactly once.
"Create new calendar" fails on kSuite.
Calendars created externally over CalDAV are not reliably kept by Infomaniak – creation is confirmed, but the calendar does not exist afterwards. So create the target calendar directly in Infomaniak Calendar, reopen the sync wizard in Kalender Sync and pick "choose existing calendar".

Frequently asked questions
Does my kSuite data stay in Switzerland?
Yes. Your kSuite calendar data remains in Infomaniak's Swiss data centre. Kalender Sync itself hosts in Germany (Hetzner) – no US provider is involved.
Why do I need an app-specific password for kSuite?
kSuite offers no OAuth interface for external calendar tools, but CalDAV. The secure path is an app-specific password you create in kSuite's security settings and can revoke at any time.
Does it sync both ways?
Yes. You can sync kSuite and Google two-way or deliberately pick a single direction – configurable per connection.
Are my event details transferred?
Only as much as you allow. By default only "busy" is transferred; per sync you can step up to "title + time" or full details.
What does kSuite-Google syncing cost?
One synchronisation is permanently free on the Free plan. kSuite as a CalDAV provider is included from the Basic plan (€4/month). New accounts test all Business features free for 14 days, no credit card.
