Expand the Google Calendar booking form with other fields

[Giacomo_Ria]

Hi all,

i have an App with Google Calendar as data source. I would like to allow my users book an appointment based on free slots in calendar: i see that AppSheet only permit to insert Email address (as “Attendees”) and Description, with other native calendar fields.

I would like to let users give others information such us Name, Surname and other datas. It’s like unify two forms: one from calendar (to book the appointment) and the other based on google form or google sheets.

Is it possibile? How?

Thank you.

You’d need to create a third table with columns that contain the data for the two other tables. When the user goes to edit a calendar entry, redirect the operation to this third table, then copy the results back to the other two tables.

Thank you for the previous response.

Is it also possible to add a payment feature to the transaction before they book a particular time slot?

[Steve]

AppSheet has no built-in support for payment systems.

Could I embed a PayPal or other gateway into the App, maybe in a frame? Or, would the transaction have to take me out of the app to complete?
