Integrate Outlook 365 with Schedule tab / Combine Google Calendar integration with Meetings
These two things should not be separate. They should be managed by one central calendar integration service that can be used for Meetings links or the Schedule tab in the CRM:
Outlook - "New Meeting Request" integration to HubSpot is key for those that use Microsoft Office products professionally like Outlook. I'm a little surprised it hasn't already been integrated.
This is now a standard process for Sales teams to work efficiently.. We're using Outlook365 Calendar which does not support synching to Meetings, even if set to BUSY. Support ticket response explains it more clearly.
Thank you for reaching out to HubSpot Support! Unfortunately we currently do not have the functionality built out for Office 365 calendars to sync with HubSpot (as mentioned in the bottom of this article). The integration for the office 365 is for your meetings links through which leads or contacts can book time directly with you. That integration does not currently translate to the schedule a meeting feature on the contact records.
We would like to be able to set Zoom / Outlook meetings directly through the CRM. (You now can with Zoom, yay!) But this still isn't possible with Outlook. Google Calendar is the only option. So right now, we can only use a salesperson's meeting link in order to use Zoom + Outlook effectively. We would love to be able to do that straight from the CRM.
Also, we have SDRs that set meetings for our salespeople. It would be great if they could set a meeting on behalf of the salesperson using the CRM as well. Right now, I don't think that's possible.
We now have a working solution for a 2-way sync between Office365 calendar and HubSpot. We'll be rolling this out to all portals in the next several weeks!
Hi all! I'm very pleased to announce the two way sync integration for Outlook 365, offering feature parity with our Google one, is now live to all users: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/integrations/use-hubspots-integration-with-google.... We will be working in future to make this an even more streamlined integration that links up with our Meetings tool, so stay tuned for that! In the meantime, if there are any more calendar related features you would like to see us build, please submit new ideas so we can gauge community interest. Thanks again for all your feedback!
@hroberts great news and I've been using the beta version with my team. Works as advertised. One thing I did run into though, is that internal meetings that are scheduled (not prospects, but rather team meetings we hold) are being populated as Meetings in HubSpot since we have our own company as a record for workflow processes. Is there a way to exclude certain domains so this doesn't happen?
Hey @MattF! The meetings should be excluded if they are only with users in HubSpot or their emails are hosted on your domain (see the knowledgebase article):
HubSpot automatically prevents any events from being added for members of your organization based on email domain, and existing users in your HubSpot account.
If you're seeing that not to be the case, please reach out to our Support team so they can dig into your examples! If they don't meet this criteria, I'd recommend filing a new ideas forum submission about having some sort of Meetings equivalent to our email "Never Log" setting 🙂
This is great news! I and my team have been using the beta version and it covers what we needed very nicely. Please thank the Development Team for hearing us and getting this issue resolved.
Integration with Outlook 365 should be complete and interactive and bi-directional
Especially the scheduling part.
It could be accomplished probably with some buttons in Outlook (like Dynamics CRM uses, shere you click on a button in Outlook and the record is integrated in CRM)
There is a problem thus far in Ticketing:
I am the organizer/administrator of my support team
When I create an appointment to a customer for one of the team members and i click Add to Office365 Calendar
the Appointment is Created in the team member Calendar but in MY Calendar as well, so I end up having multiple appointments registered at the same time in my Outlook Calendar
