Donut's Google Calendar integration makes it quick and easy to schedule a meeting with your teammates. Once you've linked your Google Calendar, Donut will automatically display available meeting times whenever you're part of a Donut intro.
You'll be able to browse and book a time to meet with your teammates, and create a Google Calendar invite directly from Slack.
Turning on Google Calendar for your Intro Channel
First, you'll need to toggle on the Google Calendar integration under the "Scheduling & Meeting" tab settings for your Intro channel at app.donut.ai
Log in at app.donut.ai with your Slack credentials
Click the settings gear icon for your Intro channel
Click "Scheduling & Meeting" tab at the top
Scroll down to Google Calendar and toggle the feature on
Once you've done this, users can then link their calendars individually. You can read more about linking individual calendars here.
Zoom or Google Hangouts Conferencing
If you don't have Zoom integration enabled, when calendar invites are created using Donut's Google Calendar integration, the default conferencing link will be a Google Hangouts link.
Changing the Default Meeting Length for Your Channel
Want your teammates to have a quick 15-minute chat over coffee? Or need a 90-minute brainstorm session? Channel admins can customize the length of calendar meetings from the dashboard.
Click the channel you wish to edit in the dashboard
Navigate to the "Scheduling & Meeting" tab at the top
Scroll down below the toggle for Google Calendar and look for the drop-down that says "Default calendar meeting duration"
Select the default time you'd like to use and save when finished!
