  2. Click the down arrow next to “My calendars” 
  3. Click the stacked dots to the right when you hover over your W2W  Calendar and choose Settings & SharingScroll down to “Integrate calendar” and Right-click the URL and choose “Copy” or use CTRL+C

When you start Outlook, it checks Google Calendar for updates and downloads any changes. If you keep Outlook open, it also periodically checks for and downloads updates. (Google Calendar tells Outlook how often to check for updates.)
