How do I use event import?

OurFamilyWizard offers a simple way to turn event details from emails directly into calendar entries, helping you stay organized and keep everyone on the same page.

Whether it’s a school reminder, a birthday invite, or an appointment confirmation, you can quickly add it to the OurFamilyWizard calendar without the hassle of manual entry.

Importing an Event

  1. Get your unique event-forwarding email address
    Each OurFamilyWizard user receives a unique email address specifically for forwarding messages that contain event details. Locate the email address by:

    1. Log into your account on the OurFamilyWizard website www.ourfamilywizard.com 

    2. Click Calendar

    3. Click Event Import

  2. Forward any email with event information
    Simply send or forward the message to your unique OurFamilyWizard email address.

    • We recommend adding the OurFamilyWizard Event Import email address to your contacts.
    • Emails must be sent to OurFamilyWizard from the email we have on file for your account.
  3. OurFamilyWizard extracts the event details
    Our system reviews the email, identifies important event information, and creates a proposed calendar entry automatically.

  4. Review and approve
    You can review the automatically created event, make edits if needed, and choose whether to share it with your co-parent back within your OurFamilyWizard account. Navigate back to the OurFamilyWizard Event Import screen to review the drafted events. Please note: By default, events are shared, but you can set them to private by clicking "Review and Edit."

    1. Log into your account on the OurFamilyWizard website www.ourfamilywizard.com 

    2. Click Calendar

    3. Click Event Import

  5. Add to your calendar
    Once approved, the event is added to your OurFamilyWizard calendar and shared based on your preferences.
