Google Calendar

Connect your Google Calendar to Kerux with your Google sign-in. It is free and needs no email inbox. Then:

• Your booking pages only offer times when your calendar is free.
• Each booking is added to your calendar with a Google Meet link.
• When a meeting with a contact appears (from your booking page, Calendly, a Google appointment schedule or an invite you sent yourself), the campaign’s When a meeting is booked box runs.

​

Before you start

• Kerux plan: meetings are part of Pro and Agency, and of the free trial.
• A Google account with Google Calendar. One per teammate in each workspace.

​

1. Connect the calendar

Already connected your Gmail inbox for email? You can also click Turn on calendar on its row: it uses the same account, at no extra cost.

​

2. Decide what happens

In each campaign, the When a meeting is booked box (in Always on) runs for every meeting with one of its contacts. New campaigns start with Remove from campaign. Add a Slack message or Add tags, or Send to another campaign for a pre-meeting sequence. Messages can use {{meeting.start}}, {{meeting.title}} and {{meeting.link}}. Which meetings count: those with a contact among the guests, matched by email. A meeting with nobody else on it (an all-day reminder, an out-of-office) never counts. Kerux looks at your calendar every few minutes, so a meeting you add or change in Google Calendar shows in Kerux within about 5 minutes.

​

Google Meet transcripts

Under Meetings > Connected calendars > Call recordings, click Turn on on Google Meet transcripts and tick the extra box on Google’s screen. After each meeting with a contact that has a Meet link, Kerux adds the transcript Meet saved to the contact and summarizes the call. Transcripts need a Google Workspace plan that includes them, with Transcripts turned on during the call. See Call transcripts and summaries.

​

Changes you make in Google Calendar

• You move a booking’s event: the booking moves too, and that time is free again on your booking pages.
• You delete a booking’s event: the booking is cancelled in Kerux. Google Calendar tells the guest; Kerux sends nothing more.
• Events marked Free in Google Calendar, and invitations you declined, don’t block time.

​

Test with one contact

Send a calendar invite from that Google account to the email of a contact in a running campaign. Within about 5 minutes the contact’s timeline shows the meeting and the campaign’s box runs.

​

Disconnect

In Meetings > Connected calendars, click Manage on its row, then Turn off calendar. Kerux gives the access back to Google (it disappears from your Google account’s third-party connections), forgets the meetings it brought and stops offering your times on booking pages. Bookings already made stay.
