Connecting Your Calendar to Hubspot CRM
In this article, we will guide you through the process of connecting your calendar to Hubspot CRM. By integrating your calendar with Hubspot CRM, you can streamline your scheduling and ensure that your events are synced seamlessly.
Step 1: Accessing Hubspot CRM Preferences
To begin, log into Hubspot CRM and navigate to the home screen. In the top right-hand corner, you will find a cog icon. Click on it to access your preferences.
Step 2: Navigating to the Calendar Settings
Once you are in the preferences section, locate the "General" tab. If you are not automatically directed to this tab, click on "General" to access it. From there, you will see a row of tabs at the top. Click on the fourth tab labeled "Calendar."
Step 3: Connecting Your Calendar
Upon reaching the calendar settings, you will notice an alert message stating that your calendar is disconnected. To connect your calendar, simply click on the "Connect Your Calendar" option.
Step 4: Selecting the Calendar Provider
A prompt will appear, asking you to choose your calendar provider. Hubspot CRM currently supports Gmail and Office 365. If you use either of these providers, select the appropriate option. Unfortunately, if you do not have one of these two calendars, you will not be able to proceed with the integration.
For the purpose of this tutorial, we will select Google Gmail as the calendar provider.
Step 5: Logging into Your Google Account
After selecting your calendar provider, click on "Connect Your Calendar." This will redirect you to the Google Accounts login page. Enter your Google account credentials to proceed.
Step 6: Granting Access to Hubspot
Once you have logged in, you will see a prompt from Hubspot requesting access to your Google account. Take a moment to review the terms and conditions if you wish, then click on "Allow" to grant access. If you are not comfortable with granting access, you can click on "Cancel" to abort the process.
Step 7: Confirming the Calendar Connection
Upon allowing access, Hubspot will establish the connection between your calendar and Hubspot CRM. You will receive a confirmation message indicating that your calendar is now connected. Congratulations! You can now utilize the calendar functionality within Hubspot CRM, ensuring that your events are synchronized between platforms.
