Google Calendar (Meetings)

Sync Google Calendar events to Vitally as an activity object.

Meetings Overview

Meetings are 1-way sync between Google Calendar and Vitally to sync calendar events into Vitally! With our Google Calendar integration, calendar events that contain tracked customers will be shown on the Account or Organization 360.

This is especially helpful for Customer Success Managers so they can see customer meetings and join right from Vitally! Within this meeting object you'll see event information like attendees, organizer, and who declined, accepted, or is still pending to the event. Additionally, generate follow-up tasks, track notes, and share Docs with customers for those meetings.

You can not manually create Meetings. Meetings will only be created when they are synced via the Integration.

Configuring Meetings

We will sync in any meeting with at least one participant who is a vitally user (ie. team member) and one participant who is a user.

If you are tracking internal team members as users (we highly suggest you do not do this) we will bring in meetings from those internal team members. If you find internal meetings in Vitally, odds are that you're tracking internal team members as users.
