Google Calendar meetings aren't connected with Hubspot

[SMAlexander]

Hello, 

We have the following situation:

Let's say we scheduled a meeting into the Google Calendar normal. As usual. We are talking with the client, and we give them a meeting request through Google Calendar. 

Now, the situation is that we want the meetings we've booked through Google Calendar to be seen in the activity on the contacts/deals. 

What is a workaround for this?

Thanks,

Hi Pam,

Yes. I've already synced my calendar with Hubspot. The challenge is that I've made a separate calendar in gmail, which I've shared with others to keep certain calendars separate visually. Unfortunately, any event we log in that calendar is not syncing into Hubspot. We don't have a paid calendly account currently so we actually can't use the Calendly/Hubspot integration.

Hi @ktzetzos,

it is possible to add multiple calendars! Here's how.

Let us know how that works,

Kindly,

Pam

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

In this way you have to start creating meeting always from Hubspot.

But ..what if..We create a new meeting on google calendar and then we want it to be saved automatically on Hubspot?

Doing this, doesn't makes my appointment appears into Google Calendar, probably something got broken from HubSpot side.

Exactly. Or you got a meeting invitation from the prospect, click yes, it appears in Google Calendar ... but not Hubspot.

This is the specific situation where I'm having sync issues.

These are my scenarios: 

• If I send the invite in Google Calendar it is pushed to Hubspot.
• If I create a meeting in HubSpot it is pushed to Google Calendar. 
• If I accept a meeting in Google Calendar it is pushed to Hubspot. 
• Meetings created and accepted prior to integrating Google Calendar are not syncing. 

It appears it works if there is a push/pull event once the apps are integrated. However, there does not appear to be true sync between the apps.

Hi @DeskMaka,

You can manually log a meeting in HubSpot if it originated in Google.

Thank you,

This is my meeting in Google.

This meeting does not and will not appear in Hubspot Sales-->Meetings.  They never do.

Hubspot site says that it should two-way sync, it does not.  False statements? Or where am I going wrong?

Hello @insanenutman77,

Just want to confirm if you are trying to connect your calendar to HubSpot and it's not possible? If so, this article here will explain more reasons why you are not able to connect your meetings.

If this is not what you are referring to,  The more information, screenshots, and details you can provide, the better I can advise on the next steps.

Thank you,

Pam

Not a good solution for most companies.  Most of the time marketing and sales have meetings with others in the company who do not use Hubspot.

@SMAlexander  why not schedule the meetings with clients through the HubSpot meetings tool?

[SMAlexander]

Too complicated.
