Google Contacts
ProTeamsConnect your Google account so that leads collected through your Lynkle cards are automatically added to your Google Contacts.
When someone shares their contact details with you via your card, Lynkle creates a new contact in your Google account with their name, email, and phone number. No manual data entry needed.
Before you start
- A Lynkle Pro or Lynkle Teams subscription
- A Google account
Connect Google Contacts
- Open integrations settings
In Lynkle, go to Settings > Integrations and click Connect.
- Choose the scope
If you're on a Teams plan and are an organization owner, you'll be asked who the integration is for. Select Just me to connect your personal Google account.
If you're on a Pro plan, you'll skip this step.
- Select Google
Click Google from the list of providers.
- Authorize Lynkle
You'll be redirected to Google's sign-in page. Sign in with the Google account you want contacts synced to, then grant Lynkle permission to manage your contacts.
Lynkle requests permission to create contacts in your Google account. It does not read or modify your existing contacts.
After authorizing, you'll be redirected back to Lynkle and the integration will appear as Connected on the Integrations page.
Managing the integration
Click Manage on a connected Google integration to:
- Choose which cards sync. Toggle syncing on or off for each of your cards. When a card has syncing enabled, any new lead collected by that card will be added to your Google Contacts.
- Sync new cards automatically. Enable the "Sync new cards" toggle so that any cards you create in the future are automatically included.
Disconnecting
To stop syncing, click Manage on the integration and then Disconnect. This removes the connection between Lynkle and your Google account. Contacts that were already synced will remain in your Google Contacts.
Troubleshooting
- Integration shows "Disconnected" status. Lynkle periodically refreshes the connection to your Google account. If the refresh fails (for example, if you revoked access in your Google account settings), the integration will show as disconnected. Click Reconnect to re-authorize.
- Contacts not appearing in Google. Verify that the card you're testing with has syncing enabled for this integration. Open Manage and check the toggle for that card.
