This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough of how to integrate Bubble.io with GoToMeeting. This process involves using APIs, for which basic knowledge about handling APIs is required.
Step 1: Obtain your GoToMeeting Developer API access
Begin by going to the GoToMeeting Developer Website at https://developer.goto.com/ and sign up for an API account if you don’t already have one. Log into your developer account and create a new app. This new app will generate API keys (Client ID and Client Secret) which you’ll use to integrate with Bubble.io.
Step 2: Register a new app on GoToMeeting
While registering a new app on the GoToMeeting Developer site, you'll be asked to provide some basic information about your application. Here, specify 'https://bubble.io/postoauth' as the redirect URI.
Step 3: Save the Client ID and Client Secret
Once your application is created, save the generated Client ID and Client Secret somewhere secure. You'll be needing these details to configure the API on Bubble.io.
Step 4: Create a new app on Bubble.io
Move over to Bubble.io and sign up or log in to your account. If you haven't already, create a new app for which you would like the integration to happen.
Step 5: Installing API Connector Plugin
Once inside your app, go to the plugin tab and add a new plugin. Search for "API Connector" and install it.
Step 6: Set up new API connection in Bubble.io
Navigate to the Plugins tab and find the API Connector. Click on "Add another API". In the new API definition box, define a name for it, for example, "GoToMeeting API".
Step 7: Specify the API settings
On this screen, insert the base URL of the GoToMeeting API https://api.getgo.com in the space provided.
Under the 'Authentication' section, select "OAuth2 User-Agent Flow", and provide your previously generated Client ID and Client Secret.
For the "Login dialog redirect URI(s)", insert https://bubble.io/postoauth, and for the "Access Token Endpoint" insert https://api.getgo.com/oauth/v2/token.
In the 'Scope' area, provide the specific permissions your Bubble.io application will need from your GoToMeeting account. For example, "user:read, user:write".
Click on 'Initialize call' after setting these fields.
Step 8: Add the individual API calls
Here, you’ll add all the individual API endpoints for the actions you want to perform with GoToMeeting. For creating a new meeting you can use /G2M/rest/meetings
endpoint. For getting the user details, you can use the /admin/rest/v1/me/users
endpoint.
Step 9: Use GoToMeeting API in Workflow
To use these API call in your application you need to make changes to your Bubble.io Workflow. There you can integrate 'Call an API' for different triggers as per your requirements.
Step 10: Test the Workflow
Once the workflows are set, you should test the application to make sure that the integration is working fine. You can do this by setting up a dummy event then confirming it on GoToMeeting.
This completes our step-by-step guide on how to integrate Bubble.io with GoToMeeting. Please remember to replace all placeholder values with your actual User ID, Meeting ID, and other details when setting the API calls.
Remember to check official API documentation on both websites as some details or steps may change based on the platform updates. Always follow the best practices while handling APIs.
Scenario: A team of remote consultants wants to simplify the process of scheduling and hosting virtual meetings with their clients. They use Bubble.io to create a user-friendly platform where their clients can view their availability, choose a suitable date and time, and book a meeting. They want to automatically integrate these bookings with GoToMeeting to schedule virtual meetings and generate participation links.
Solution: Integrating Bubble.io with GoToMeeting
Booking Platform Creation: The consultants use Bubble.io to design a bespoke booking platform. This includes a calendar displaying their availability and a form for clients to select their preferred date/time and provide their contact information.
Setting Up the Integration: The consultants install the GoToMeeting plugin in Bubble.io and sync it with their GoToMeeting account. They set up workflows in Bubble.io that trigger when a client makes a booking through their platform.
Scheduling Workflow: When a client submits the booking form, the Bubble.io workflow is activated. The data submitted (e.g. selected date/time, client email) is automatically sent to GoToMeeting via the configured plugin action. A new meeting is created in GoToMeeting, taking into account the consultant's and client's selected date/time. An email with the meeting details and participation link is automatically sent to the client.
Virtual Meetings via GoToMeeting: The consultants host their virtual meetings using GoToMeeting, benefiting from its advanced features such as screen sharing, recording and transcription services. They can also easily reschedule or cancel meetings directly from GoToMeeting as necessary.
Monitoring and Analytics: The integration allows for seamless tracking of meetings and participant details within GoToMeeting. The consultants can monitor the effectiveness of their booking platform and make data-driven decisions to optimize their processes.
Benefits:
Efficiency: Automating the meeting booking and scheduling process saves time and reduces the likelihood of double booking or errors.
Professionalism: The seamless integration and automatic email confirmations enhance the client's perception of the consultant team's professionalism.
Convenience: The consultants and their clients enjoy a user-friendly and efficient process for scheduling and hosting virtual meetings.
Data Insights: The team can analyze the effectiveness of their booking system in GoToMeeting, gaining insights into client behavior and meeting frequency.
By integrating Bubble.io with GoToMeeting, the consultant team can streamline their meeting scheduling process, optimize their client communications and ultimately enhance their level of service.
