2 min read
Info
To use this feature, make sure that your Team has enabled it in Automations
There are 2 ways to create a Google Calendar event with your customer :
By system auto trigger when Status of your lead changes to a pre-defined option
By manually creating one through lead’s context menu
Both ways will be explained below :
System Auto Trigger
When your Team enables this Automation, they will need to choose a triggering option (see photo below for example).
Following the example above, whenever your lead’s Status is changed to Made Appointment, the pop-up to create a Calendar event will be shown.
Manual Create
You can also create an event manually by clicking on the lead’s context menu -> Calendar Event.
Granting Necessary Permissions
Once the pop-up is shown, you will be asked to grant ChatMamba permission to manage your Google Calendar Events.
Click on Sign in to Google Calendar and follow the instruction on the screen to complete the authorization.
Creating Google Calendar Event
To create a Google Calendar Event, fill up the fields. Photo below shows where each field is mapped to in Google Calendar.
Note that the appointment time will be the same as the one in your lead’s data
Once you have confirmed the details, click on Create Calendar Event.
Tip
To keep data in sync, we recommend you to manage all ChatMamba created Calendar Event inside ChatMamba. Changes that you made directly in Google Calendar will not be reflected inside ChatMamba.
Updating Google Calendar Event
In case you need to change the appointment time, you can open the created event through lead’s context menu and edit the details. The changes will be reflected to the created Google Calendar Event.
Deleting Google Calendar Event
To remove a created event, you can open the created event through lead’s context menu and click on Delete Event (see photo below). The correspoding Google Calendar Event will be removed.
