Connect your Google account to Rally for efficient email, calendar management, and interview scheduling and management. Depending on the Workspace settings configured by your Rally Admin, you may only need to connect your calendar. This applies when a custom email domain has been set up as the preferred email method.
Connect to Google
In the top right corner of Rally, select your user icon and select 'Settings'.
From the sidebar, select 'Connected Accounts'.
To the right of Google, select 'Connect Google'.
A new browser tab will open asking you to log into the account you want to give Rally permission to. Select the correct account and select 'Continue'.
Approve the requested permissions, listed in the table below, by selecting 'Allow'.
Once complete, the new browser tab will close automatically and your Google account should be connected and ready to use!
