Google Integration: Flexible Record Matching, More Template Options, Two-Way Event Sync, and Required Change to Lightning Sync Setup
Get your reps working their Salesforce deals in Gmail™ and Google
Calendar™. Lightning for Gmail gives reps added flexibility when they’re matching email
recipients with relevant Salesforce records. More email template options, Einstein lead scoring,

two-way event sync for Lightning Experience, Salesforce for Android, Salesforce for iOS, and
Salesforce mobile web users. In addition, customers syncing events from Google Calendar to
Salesforce need to update their Lightning Sync setup to continue syncing events in Winter ‘18.
These changes apply to Lightning Experience,
Salesforce Classic, and all versions of the Salesforce app.
