Gainsight/Gong Integration Question- Criteria for merging Gong activity and Manual Activity

Hi everyone -

 

So I’m testing the Gong integration and so far I love it.  One thing I’ve noticed is that it feels very inconsistent to me when a Gong post merges with a manual timeline activity to create (which I’ve been affectionately calling) a super timeline activity.

 

What is the criteria for this to happen?   Is it timing/author?  Like if the timeline activity is within X minutes of the gong call date/time and the author is the same then merge?

 

I want to roll this out to the team but I want to be clear on how to make this happen more consistently.  What I’m seeing is that, when the merge does happen, it posts to the R360 (which is the desired result)

Thanks so much for your responses.   The cool thing about this integration I didn’t realize until doing some testing with the CSMs was, if they follow the instructions above and post their timeline update on their R360 - then it was sync the gong call to the R360 timeline (which is amazing).

Is there a way to merge a post and the Gong post if it’s over 15 minutes? I often write notes way ahead of the meeting, and save right after the meeting. I don’t want to keep it in drafts as I create tasks and want to log immediately. It would be ideal if I could then select the gong meeting that integrates and merge the two rather than having to manually copy and paste my notes over

@Bhawya is this Activity Date/time or Created date/time? I am being told differently by support. Articles can be interpreted in either way.

I’d also like to know if this is syncing based on the call’s “Activity Date/Time” vs the TL entry’s “Created Date/Time”
