# Google, Email & Website Integrations

> Some specifics below depend on how CBM's integrations are configured. Where you see *"as configured,"* confirm the detail for your setup (or ask — see [Getting Help and Next Steps](https://docs.clevelandbusinessmentors.org/link/60)).

Configuring System Email- (Allows sending new user email, forgot password and system notifications.)


## Google (Gmail, Calendar, Contacts)

The CRM connects to Google so that email, calendar, and/or contacts work together *(as configured)*. The most common admin task is **re-authorizing** when the connection drops — typically after a password change or when a sign-in token expires.

- Administration → **Integrations → Google** for the system connection; individual Gmail/Calendar links live under each user's preferences.
- If users report email or calendar not syncing, check the integration status and **re-authorize** (sign in and approve again with the CBM Google account).

> If re-authorizing keeps failing, the underlying Google API credentials may need attention — that's a technical step; see [Getting Help and Next Steps](https://docs.clevelandbusinessmentors.org/link/60).

## Outbound email

- Administration → **Outbound Emails** controls how the CRM sends mail.
- Quick check: trigger a password reset or notification and confirm it arrives.

> If the CRM stops sending email (resets, notifications), outbound email settings or the Google connection are the usual causes.

## Inbound email

- If configured, the CRM can capture incoming email under **Email Accounts / Group Email Accounts**.

## The website

- CBM's public website connects to the CRM *(as configured — e.g. intake forms creating records)*. If website-submitted data stops arriving, that integration and its **API user** are where to look.
