we have connected google calendar to quotient in the effort to automatically create contacts in quotient from entries in google calendar. which works great

but there isnt enough fields in google calendar to do it properly.

there is an extension that allows custom fields for google calendar but then zapier doesnt see them to input into quotient.

any way around this.

Hi @carpet craft taree 

What are the other fields? (screenshots to provide more context)


one picture shows the standard layout for google calendar

the other shows custom fields with using the custom fields extension in the chrome store 


@carpet craft taree 

What are the specific custom field data points you are trying to get from GCal to Quotient?

Best to outline a specific example.


first name

last name

phone number

company name

email

 


@carpet craft taree 

Why not include those as part of a Google Contacts record?

Or you can include in the GCal Event Description to then parse out.


i was looking at custom fields as we organise a calendar with to book in appointments.

as pictured how we book in appointments

If you are trying to use GCal in the Zap steps, then only the native GCal fields are available.


ok thanks
