MeetingBooster can be integrated with several other applications and services to make meeting scheduling and calendar synchronization easier. In most cases, you select calendar integration options when completing the Welcome wizard, but you can also set up and edit your integration options as described below. For more information about using the Welcome wizard, see "Using the Welcome wizard".
Click Settings and select Profile.
Click Calendar Integration under Personal in the menu.
Select which integration option you would like to use. The option selected here is used for notifying attendees when you have scheduled a meeting (unless you select No integration).
Outlook: If the Microsoft Outlook plug-in is installed on your computer, and you open Outlook, the plug-in ensures synchronization of data between MeetingBooster and Microsoft Outlook and automatically sends invitation emails to all attendees of meetings that you schedule when Outlook is running. If the Outlook plug-in is installed, this is the default synchronization setting. For more information on manually installing the Microsoft Outlook plug-in, see "Installing the Microsoft Outlook plug-in".
Google Calendar: Attendees are invited to meetings that you schedule through an email sent from Google Calendar. To be able to select this option, you first need to associate your Google account, as explained below.
RSVP: Attendees are notified of meetings that you schedule through RSVP emails sent from MeetingBooster.
No Integration: Attendees are not notified directly of meetings that you schedule. They can see the meetings on the Meetings tab in the main window when they log into MeetingBooster.
The administrator may have decided to deactivate some of these options, in which case they will not appear in the list of integration options available to you. For more information, see "Setting calendar integration options" in the Administrator Guide.
As explained in "Logging into MeetingBooster", you can use your Google account to log on to MeetingBooster if you have associated your Google account with MeetingBooster.
You can only associate a Google account if your administrator has enabled Google authentication.
Click Associate.
You are taken to a Google website.
If you are not already logged into Google, log in using the email address which you want to associate with MeetingBooster.
Click Accept to give MeetingBooster offline access to your Google account and any other authorizations MeetingBooster may require.
You are taken back to the MeetingBooster Admin page which now shows the connection defined.
Click Save.
Your Google account has now been associated with MeetingBooster.
If your MeetingBooster account was created using the same email address as your Google account, the association between the two accounts will be made automatically when you log into MeetingBooster.
Click Remove.
Click Save.
Removing the association also removes the synchronization between MeetingBooster and Google Calendar if you have selected this.
You can subscribe to an iCalendar feed that sends information about meetings that you have scheduled or been invited to attend in MeetingBooster. The information from the feed can be displayed in any application that supports iCalendar feeds (such as Google Calendar). This is a very useful feature if you do not regularly access the MeetingBooster site or use the Microsoft Outlook plug-in.
The iCalendar feed will send title, location and start and end time information for the meetings from your MeetingBooster calendar. If you need more detailed information such as meeting agendas, tasks and participants, you will need to log onto MeetingBooster or use the Microsoft Outlook plug-in. Using the feed is a useful way of updating your Outlook calendar if you do not wish to use the plug-in.
Select the feed displayed next to the iCalendar URL label, copy it, and paste it into your iCalendar compatible application.
For more information on setting up and using the feed in your iCalendar compatible application, see the user documentation for the application.
Make sure to select and copy the entire feed (starting with "http" or https" and ending with a letter or number), or it will not work.
The iCalendar feed is specific to your MeetingBooster account. In other words, it does not send meeting information for other users. If you need to subscribe to the feeds of one or more other users in your organization, ask these users to provide you with the iCalendar feeds from the Admin section of their MeetingBooster accounts using the procedure described above.
Never subscribe to a feed from someone else's calendar, in MeetingBooster or elsewhere, without express prior permission! The information contained in the calendar may be private and confidential.
