It is a robot that generates a conversation to discuss with your customers and prospects in instant messages, like a chat on social networks for example. You can encounter them in your <strong>Messenger<\/strong>, Twitter, Instagram, Whatsapp <strong>messengers<\/strong>, but also directly via a website. Thus, chatbots such as Botnation\u2019s bot allow you to be in contact with the <strong>company<\/strong> that offers services to its customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can easily ask and find <strong>information<\/strong> before buying products, claim, find solutions, make an appointment\u2026 The customer follows his conversations with the application or the website of the company to find satisfaction thanks to the advice of the chatbot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the prospect does not have to wait hours or minutes for a response. Chatbots respond instantly. In addition, the discussion is done at the client\u2019s pace. It ends when he wants it to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of a chat bot within a company not only improves the user experience, but also promotes the strengthening of customer relations. This web service is beneficial to both the <strong>company<\/strong> and the customers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"google-calendar-qu-est-ce-que-c-est\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Google_Calendar\"><\/span>What is Google Calendar?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Calendar is a program that helps you organize, manage and share your <strong>calendar<\/strong> data with others. You can insert any birthday program, event, important meeting or doctor\u2019s appointment.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This application has an API made and an easy to understand interface. A company can therefore connect to its customers via the Google Calendar<strong>API <\/strong>to share a part of its calendar reserved for appointments for example. To do so, it can use its<a href=\"https:\/\/botnation.ai\/en\/chatbot-definition\/\"> chatbot<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"connecter-google-calendar-a-botnation\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Connect_Google_Calendar_to_Botnation\"><\/span>Connect Google Calendar to Botnation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Botnation\u2019s bot helps create a conversation bot, but it also has a setting to connect it to other external programs. Indeed, with the <strong>Zapier plugin<\/strong>, you can connect Google Calendar to Botnation. Thus, thanks to Zapier, you have the possibility to use the features of Google Calendar.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"comment-connecter-google-calendar-a-botnation-via-zapier\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_connect_Google_Calendar_to_Botnation_via_Zapier\"><\/span>How to connect Google Calendar to Botnation via Zapier?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tools.webeditor.network\/attachments\/75e9e292-ee33-47a2-8f81-dd6c3aab4292?lite=1\" alt=\"connection, assembly of puzzle pieces\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To start, you need to go to your chat bot and select the Zapier feature. Then choose \u201cADD VARIABLE\u201d. This option will ask you to fill in some information before asking you to create a ZAP. You then need to connect the two tools to use the <strong>Botnation and Zapier <\/strong>duo and create your first ZAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, add for example the Google Calendar tool among the many applications available and share your available slots with your prospects. They can then, by being in <a href=\"https:\/\/botnation.ai\/en\/ai-bard\/\">conversation with the chatbot<\/a>, make an appointment or search for the date of one of your events.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a client, however, note that it is also possible to access your service provider\u2019s<strong>calendar<\/strong> without necessarily using the Zapier feature. In fact, the Botnation bot has a built-in feature that allows customers to book appointments directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"la-fonction-date-et-heure\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_%E2%80%9Cdate_and_time%E2%80%9D_function\"><\/span>The \u201cdate and time\u201d function<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature allows customers to access a <strong>calendar<\/strong> and choose a date and time for an appointment through your chatbot. The customer, depending on the desired service, can make a reservation, mention a wedding date\u2026 You can use this feature as much on your website as with Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp and even Instagram on some chatbots. Combine this functionality when creating your chatbot and modify it according to your preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cdate and time\u201d functionality is visible to visitors in the form of a custom button. By clicking on it, the user will have no trouble finding his way around. The recorded data are accessible in the list of variables. You will be able to access them easily and exploit them without getting lost.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, the <strong>Zapier feature<\/strong> allows you to integrate the Google Calendar application into your Botnation chatbot without much difficulty. The user can then easily make an appointment to take advantage of a service of the company. It is also possible to access this feature without Zapier. Just use the \u201cdate and time\u201d tool of your Botnation chatbot. Integrating Google Calendar into your Botnation bot makes for a better customer relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to offer the best services to their customers, many companies use different tools.
