Google (Calendar and Meet)

Connecting your Google account is the simplest and most powerful way to automate the recording of your video calls in Salescaling. This guide explains how to do it.

1. Connect your Google Calendar

This is the essential step for the Salescaling bot to identify your meetings and join them automatically.

Connection Steps:
1. Go to Settings > Integrations.
2. In the Calendar section, find the Google card and click Connect.
3. You will be redirected to a Google login page, where you must choose your account and grant the necessary permissions to Salescaling.
4. Once authorized, you will return to Salescaling and the Google Calendar card will show a green tick and the Disconnect button.

Main Benefit and Automatic Operation:

By completing this connection, Salescaling will begin to synchronize your calendar events so that they automatically appear in your Bot Manager.

Synchronization works as follows:

Synchronization Window: The platform automatically imports all meetings scheduled for the next month (30 days).
Continuous Update: This process repeats daily, always maintaining a one-month view window. This way, the Bot Manager will always be updated with your upcoming events without you having to do anything.

Which calendars are synchronized?

Salescaling automatically synchronizes all calendars you own:

✅ Primary calendar: Your primary Google calendar
✅ Secondary calendars: Any additional calendars you have created
❌ Shared calendars: Calendars shared by other users (not synchronized)
❌ Read-only calendars: Third-party calendars with limited permissions

Important note: If you need to synchronize events from shared calendars, each user must connect their own Google account to Salescaling.

2. Support for Google Meet

As you can see in the Video Calls section, Google Meet appears with a green tick by default. This means it is ready to use without the need for additional calendar integration setup.

Once you have connected your Google Calendar, the bot will be able to automatically join Google Meet meetings it finds. Alternatively, you can also have the bot join a Google Meet meeting in two ways:

Using the Record Meeting option within the Salescaling platform.
Using the Salescaling browser extension directly from Google Meet.

Allowed Google Meet links

For the Salescaling bot to correctly join your Google Meet meetings, the link must follow the standard Google Meet format:

✅ Valid links:

https://meet.google.com/abc-defg-hij
http://meet.google.com/abc-defg-hij
meet.google.com/abc-defg-hij
https://meet.google.com/abc-defg-hij?authuser=0&hs=179

❌ Invalid links:

Google Calendar links that are not Meet-specific
Links from other video call platforms
Links that do not contain the meet.google.com domain

Tip: When creating an event in Google Calendar, make sure the "Add Google Meet video conferencing" option is enabled to automatically generate the correct link.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What exact permissions am I giving Salescaling when connecting my Google account?

By authorizing the connection, you give Salescaling permission to:

Read calendar events: Title, description, date/time, participants
Access video call links: Google Meet, Teams, and Zoom links in events
Synchronize automatically: Import events for the next month (30 days)

Technical permissions requested: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar (read-only access to calendars)

What Salescaling does NOT access:

❌ Personal emails

Are my shared calendars or calendars from other users synchronized?

No. Salescaling only synchronizes calendars you directly own:

✅ Your primary calendar
✅ Secondary calendars you have created
❌ Calendars shared by colleagues
❌ Read-only third-party calendars

If you need to synchronize events from shared calendars, each user must connect their own Google account.

What happens if I have multiple calendars in my Google account?

All your own calendars are automatically synchronized. You don't need to configure anything additional:

Your primary calendar will appear immediately
Any secondary calendars you have created will also be synchronized
You can filter by specific calendar in the Bot Manager if necessary

How often is synchronization updated?

Synchronization is automatic and continuous:

Initial import: Upon connection, events for the next month are imported
Daily update: The 30-day window is updated daily
Real-time synchronization: Changes in your calendar are automatically reflected

You don't need to do anything manually to keep synchronization active.
