1-on-1: Calendar integration
1-on-1: Calendar integration
Updated over a month ago

Manage your schedule easily by syncing Workleap Officevibe with your main Google calendar. This eliminates the need to schedule them in Officevibe as well. Your preferred calendar is now the only source of truth.

The ability to create and schedule 1-on-1s using the calendar integration is available to Executives and Team Managers. Team Members do not have this option available on Officevibe.

How it works

The Managers can begin their Calendar integration after Inviting their Team Members to collaborate on the 1-on-1 tab of their Officevibe subscription.

1. Invite a member to collaborate

Step 1: Click the Invite a member button on the 1-on-1 tab. If no preexisting 1-on-1 meetings are displayed, the Manager can create a new 1-on-1.

Step 2: From the previous step, a popup window will appear – select a Team Member to schedule the meeting with. You can also select other Managers from the window prompt. Click Done to continue.

The Managers and Team Members can invite only one participant for the selected 1-on-1.

2. Connect to the main calendar

The main calendar integration is a one-way integration. Officevibe uses Google as the source of truth for 1-on-1 scheduling. If you change the scheduled time from your calendar, the latest updates will be reflected in Officevibe. Schedule changes will not be pushed from Officevibe to Google.

To begin your Google calendar integration.

Step 1: Click the Schedule 1-on-1 button in the agenda with the invited Team Member.

Step 2: Click Connect with my Google Calendar to integrate.

If your 1-on-1 was previously scheduled manually, then the Google integration will overwrite the schedule details.

Step 3: You will be directed to the Google login page, where you will be asked to enter your Google account login credentials.

Step 4: Check the Select All box and click Continue to grant Officevibe access to the main calendar integration. Once consent is provided, the integration is set.

Permissions must be accepted for the calendar integration to be successful. If the 1-on-1 participants do not provide consent, they can retry and connect.

Step 5: The Calendar type is selected by default. Click Select Calendar to continue to the next step.

Step 6: Following the calendar selection, Officevibe will display all calendar events available. You can now Connect to a Google meeting by selecting the meeting from the list that appears (these meetings must be created beforehand in Google Calendar).

Once you have selected the event, the synchronization will be executed. The selected event date and time will then be displayed in the Team Member's agenda – calendar changes can take up to a few minutes to appear in Officevibe.

A meeting reminder is sent three days before the scheduled 1-on-1s on Officevibe.

3. Disconnect from Google

The Google integration can be removed at any time, and we do not store your Google calendar data after the integration is removed from Officevibe.

To disconnect from Google in Workleap Officevibe, follow the instructions below:

  • Step 1: Click on the calendar details for the previously scheduled 1-on-1.

  • Step 2: Click Disconnect Google Calendar to proceed.

  • Step 3: Click Disconnect to confirm.

Once the integration is disconnected, all calendars linked to the agenda will be deleted, and the meeting date of those agendas will be unscheduled. However, the option to schedule the meeting manually will remain available.

Officevibe's calendar integration does not support calendar events created by third-party applications outside Google.

4. Troubleshooting

If your agenda schedule isn't updated within 2 minutes or if you're getting inconsistent results, the simplest solution is to unlink and then relink your agenda.

All-day events are not supported. If you link your agenda to an event and later change that event to an all-day event, your agenda will be unlinked.

When working with recurring events and making updates in Google Calendar, it's advisable to apply changes to "All events." Selecting "This event" or "This and following events" can disrupt agenda synchronization, and wrapping up the current agenda may not necessarily create a new upcoming agenda.

Calendars marked as read-only, such as holidays and birthdays, are not supported. Therefore, linking an agenda to an event from these calendars is not possible.
