Google Calendar Integration
Connect Google Calendar with Nuteq to enable real-time two-way booking synchronization, automatic slot reservations, and reschedule handling.
By Nuteq TeamPublished 1 min read
In Nuteq, the Google Calendar integration connects your voice and messaging agents directly to your team schedules for two-way appointment booking. The system checks availability before offering times to callers, creates calendar invitations with complete caller details, and ensures that busy blocks are respected across every channel.
Real-Time Availability and Conflict Resolution
When a caller requests an appointment, Nuteq checks your connected Google Calendar for existing events. It calculates open windows based on your configured service durations, buffer times, and working hours.
If two callers attempt to book the same slot simultaneously, Nuteq uses optimistic concurrency locks to secure the reservation for the first confirmed turn and offers alternate times to the second caller.
Service Durations and Buffer Times
You can configure distinct appointment types in Nuteq with custom durations and preparation buffers:
| Setting | Purpose | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Service Duration | Length of customer appointment | Blocks exact time on Google Calendar |
| Buffer Time | Turnaround between clients | Prevents back-to-back bookings |
| Advance Notice | Minimum booking lead time | Eliminates unannounced immediate arrivals |
| Max Future Booking | Booking horizon limit | Restricts bookings beyond configured days |
Automatic Notifications and Reminders
Once an appointment is locked, Nuteq generates a calendar event containing the client's verified phone number, caller transcript summary, and requested service details. Both the customer and your team receive instant confirmations with add-to-calendar links.
