Gong records calls scheduled through Calendly when the following conditions are met:

  • You're set up to be recorded by Gong

  • The meeting appears in your calendar

  • The meeting event includes a web conferencing link

    If you don't have a web conferencing link, Gong recommends generating a link by using Calendly's (out-of-the-box) integration solution with Google Meet, Zoom, GoToMeeting, Microsoft Teams, etc.

  • In Calendly, your event types are set to Calendar invitations. You can check your settings using the steps below
