20 Google Calendar Connector for Lotus Notes Installation and Administration Guide

Find Notes users named in a Google to Notes Free/Busy request using

When a Google user requests free/busy information for a Notes user the system must locate the Notes user in
the Domino directory before the request can be fulfilled. The system has two ways to locate the Notes user in
the directory.

Select "View lookup" where the Google user adds the Notes user's SMTP address to the calendar event. The
system will locate each Notes user via the address supplied by referring to the directory's ($Users) view.

The system also allows a match to be made using a named field on the Person document. This option should
only be used if the addresses used by the Google Calendar user are not shown in the ($Users) view. To use this
approach, select "Named field" and enter the name of the field to use in the "Lookup field" box provided.

When adding Google users to the connector generate the Gmail username from the Person document using
the formula

Enter the name of the field in each Person document that contains the Google Apps user name for each Notes
user who has moved to Google Apps. Usually this is the InternetAddress field, but you can use any field.

This field is used to ensure that the agent that polls the Google calendars knows which account to access for
each Notes user listed in the Domino directory and identified as using the “Google” calendar system.

You can also enter a formula in this field. For example, the formula

@LowerCase(ShortName)+”@

domain>.com”

takes the first value in each user’s ShortName/User ID field, converts it to lowercase, and

appends @.com to create the Gmail user name/address.

Note:

An invalid formula results in Name conversion failures during polling. Use the Check Formula button at

the top of the form to validate your formula.
