Exported AIrBnB calendar to Google calendar: Google not showing recently added bookings

Hi, I followed the steps to export my AirBnB calendar to my Google Calendar account. I did this by pasting the special URL AirBNB gave me into the new calendar that I was adding to my Google calendar account.

 

At this piint it worked great: the bookings I had at that point all showed up in my Google calendar, as well as my "Unavailable" days.

 

However, since then, I have had furtehr bookings and have also changed some of my unavailable/available days. But these changes aren't reflected when I view the Google Calendar.

 

Similarly, if I use AirBNB's IFRAME snippet and paste it into an HTML page and view the page, I see the calendar similarly "frozen" at that initial state (same as in Google), without the later AirBNB-based changes showing.

 

Some of the changes happened some hours ago, so it seems that it's not just that there's a short delay in updating.

 

Is there something I need to do to cause the exported calendar to update to reflect new or changed data?

Some of the later bookings have now finally showed up in the exported version of the calendar in my Google Canedar app (and also the web page where I embedded the calendar), but not a booking that was added earlier today. So it seems to update after some hours.

 

Is there any way to make it update faster?

My experience is as follows:

 

1. On July 1st, I created my listing with two block-out dates. Later that day I received my first booking.

2. On July 2nd, I exported my calendar to Google. Both the block out dates and the booking showed up fine.

3. On July 3rd at 12pm, I received a 2nd booking. It's not showing in my Google calendar at the time of this writing (24h after booking #2).

I'm experiencing this exact same issue.

Seems to update about once a day.

I'm having the same problem. It's been 10 hours since the request came in and it's not displaying in the exported calendar.
