Enabling Google Calendar to Integrate with MarketSharp Calendar
Important notes-
- Please note any calendar events scheduled in Google calendar will appear in the Marketsharp calendar as a BUSY block. The integration was designed to allow salespeople to block off time they are unavailable for appointments (such as meetings, doctors appointments, out sick etc.) so appointments could not be scheduled during that time.
- Google calendar integration will populate blocked off appointments in the Marketsharp calendar 1 week prior and 1 month after the current date.
- The integration is designed to work on a 1:1 basis- 1 Marketsharp account can be synced with 1 Google calendar at a time. The integration was not created with the intention of connecting multiple Marketsharp accounts to a single Google account and we advise against attempting this type of setup as it has been known to cause issues with the sync between calendars.
Login to MarketSharp, click on the Admin link in drop-down in the upper right corner.
Under Company Set Up, click on the Calendar link. Click on the check box under Google Calendar next to the words, Enable Integration. Once, that box is checked, Google Calendar has been enabled, but the individual accounts still need to be linked.
To link to a Google account, click on the My Account link in the drop-down in the upper right corner of MarketSharp. Under Account Settings (Want to receive calendar events on your Google Calendar™?), click on the link, Link Your Google Account. This will redirect to the Google login page. Login with your Google credentials, check the checkbox to allow Marketsharp access to the Google calendar, then click Continue. The checkbox must be checked or the integration will not sync!
This will redirect back to MarketSharp Account Settings. If available, click on the drop-down arrow next to “Push events to calendar:” and choose the appropriate calendar.
