Hi Community! We have an exciting new feature that we are getting close to release and want to do some beta testing with some engaged end users. 

 

 Cockpit Calendar Integration  

 

What does the feature do: It allows CSM’s to add CTA’s to their calendar as events!! 

Why would they want that: CSM’s start and plan their day from the calendar. Having your important  CTA’s visible on your calendar will ensure that they don’t miss any critical due dates and better plan their day. 

How can I choose what CTA’s get added to my calendar: Users can set a filter criteria for CTA’s to be automatically added to their calendar (Eg: sync all my Risk CTA’s due next week) or manually add them from Cockpit.

What all can I do from the synced calendar event : User can navigate to the CTA in Gainsight directly from the calendar event. In addition to this, users can update CTA due date & CTA Name directly from the calendar. Also if CTA due-date’s are updated in Gainsight the calendar event in automatically updated

What if too many calendar events get created: When defining the filters user can preview how many CTA’s will get synced to their calendar to give them a sense of how many events will be added. Also at any point of time users can delete all the synced events and redefine the filters to start over again. 

Does this work for Google & Outlook Calendars: Yes 

 Is it available for both SFDC & NXT Editions: No, its available only in  Gainsight NXT  

Criteria - Available only for  NXT. Works for both Google and Outlook calendars. You should also be using Cockpit.

Timing - we want to choose testers no later than Feb 4!

Interested? Send me a DM or reply to this thread so we can get the conversation started.

Hi @rajyalakshmi_vele , this is very exciting news. We are using Gainsight SFDC edition, is there a way for the SFDC edition folks to test out the new feature?

Hi @jaw This is a NXT only feature and there are no plans to enable this for SFDC edition.This is because the feature relies on the new Cockpit version which is built on NXT/MDA. The legacy version of Cockpit built on SFDC objects does not support this.

Hi @rajyalakshmi_vele ,

Upon authorization between Gainsight and Outlook Calendar I’m asked for admin approval.

Any guidance from your end on the matter?

 

Regards,

Robert

Hi @robert_lilleby,

 

Gainsight tries to make a call to Microsoft to establish connection and when doing that i am assuming some company settings might be blocking it, we will look more into it, meanwhile can you also check with your Admin about the same.

 

Regards,

Hitesh
