Step 4: Connect your organization's Google account with Robin

Connect your Google account

Connect a Google account with Robin through OAuth. Robin recommends that you connect a generic account with access to the shared office calendars, not a personal account.

  1. In the web dashboard, go to Manage > Integrations.
  2. Under Add Connectors, find Google Workspace and select Set up. If Google Workspace is already in the Installed list, select Manage next to it. The Google Workspace page opens.
  3. Under Booking Account, select Connect.
  4. In the Google pop-up window, select the account to pair with Robin, such as your generic booking account. If the window asks for your account credentials instead of a list of your Google accounts, enter them.
  5. Select Allow to give Robin permission to access calendar information, so that it can sync events. The connection is complete.

You can then pair calendars that this account manages with your spaces.

If no calendar is connected yet, you can also start from the Connect calendars card at the top of the Integrations page: select Google Workspace.

Next step

Pair your Google room calendars with your Robin spaces. You can pair room calendars on Robin's admin page or while you design your office map in the Layout tool.

Make sure that Admin API access is turned on for your Google Workspace account, or add the Robin web app as a trusted app under "App access control" in the admin console.
