Connect Administration Form for Gmail Integration

System administrators use the Connect Administration Integration utility to configure two-way synchronization of contacts and calendar items between Vantagepoint CRM and Gmail. Use this utility to set up the users and associated profiles that make this synchronization possible.

Requirements

  • To use Vantagepoint Connect in your Gmail account, you must have a Google Workspace account (formally G Suite). You cannot use a personal .gmail.com email with Vantagepoint Connect.
  • You must use Chrome with Vantagepoint Connect for Gmail.
  • To use Connect, the Vantagepoint application must be exposed to the internet via a publicly facing URL. If your network or firewall is configured to only allow certain IP addresses to access Vantagepoint, it will be necessary to add Connect IP addresses to the Allow list.See the Troubleshoot Synchronization and Connect Add-in Issues for Gmail or Troubleshoot Synchronization and Connect Add-in Issues for Outlook help topics for the list of IP addresses.
  • The security role for the individual who is responsible for configuring Connect must have access to Connect Administration. In Settings > Security > Roles, on the Overview tab, make sure that Connect Administration is selected under Utilities > Integrations.
  • The individual who is responsible for configuring Connect (selecting the Connect Administration option in Utilities > Integrations), must have an employee record associated with their user record in Settings > Security > Users. The employee record must also have a valid email address.
  • Each employee who will use Connect must have an employee record that includes an email address and is associated with a user record in Settings > Security > Users.
  • Windows authentication for the on-premises application is not supported with Vantagepoint Connect.
  • You must have a Client ID and Secret in API Authorization in Utilities > Integrations. Note: You only need to generate the secret once for all integrations. If you generate a new secret any time thereafter, all current integrations using the old secret will be broken until you refresh your access token for those integrations.
