Admin How-To: Configuring Google Calendar Integration

A key component of Saltmine’s Utilization dataset is your organization’s room booking information. This information helps identify which rooms are being used, by what teams, and for how long. When cross-referenced with Sensor data, even more valuable insights become apparent.

To connect your organization’s Google Calendar to this feature, follow the steps below:

1. On Google’s Admin Console, go to Security > Access and Data Control > API Controls
2. Select MANAGE DOMAIN WIDE DELEGATION (See Below)

3. Once opened, select ‘Add New’
4. In the Client ID field, input 105692135575059631541 . This is Saltmine’s Google Cloud Platform Service Account unique id.
5. Under OAuth scopes, add the following scopes:

• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.resource.calendar.readonly
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.events.readonly
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonly (For Booking Preference)

6. Click Authorize  

7. Ensure that the room resources are tagged under the Meeting Space category. To do this, go to Directory > Buildings and resources > Manage Resources. Tip: You can quickly list all resources tagged under Meeting space by clicking on Add a filter > Resource category > Meeting space then click apply. 
8. Provide your Customer ID and Primary Admin email address to Saltmine. They can be found in Account > Account Settings.
