Can I create orders in the Google Calendar?

Currently the Google Calendar connections will just export your Rentle orders to your Google Calendar. There is no option to create a new Rentle order directly from your Google Calendar. The calendar does not synchronize your Rentle orders.

The status of my webhook does not turn to "Success"

If the status of your webhook in either (1) your make's scenario or (2) your Rentle Admin > Integrations does not change to Success go back to Step 1 of our guide and ensure you copied the correct URL. 

I want to see more information in my Google Calendar

With our guide your Google Calendar Events will hold the following information for each booking: Start & End time, Customer Name, phone & email, total price and Rentle Order ID.

Depending on your requirements you may want to add or remove displayed information.

The displayed information is defined in the two Google Calendar Modules that are responsible to "Update an Event" and "Create an Event".

Click on one of the modules and scroll to the section Description. Click in the field and choose which information you want to see from the list. All Rentle Data is listed in the red Webhook section. You can also enter additional text, to help you understand the type of information.

Commonly used information are for example

Additional Customer information, such as e-mail or phone number can be found under Data > CustomerDetails

Total order price and amount paid can be found underpricing > total and payment > paid respectively. Note: the prices are retrieved from Rentle in your currency's minor units; to display the prices appropriately, divide the price by 100 via the "math functions" section. Add a division slash and type 100

Link to the order can be created by typing admin.rentle.io/booking/[1. data: id]

Apply the same changes to the second Google Calendar Modul > click Save
