Removing Video Call Link and Invitee Phone Number from Google Calendar Invitation

Opened this issue · 3 comments

If you refer to the yellow squares in the attached screenshot, we currently have two issues:

  1. The Phone number of the person being invited is being displayed in the invitation and
  2. The Video Call link is being displayed even though we have not specified one.

Is there a way to remove these?

The customer phone number is added because you're passing the data when creating in the booking (in the event.description field). If you're using booking.js, it happens automatically when you enable the phone field. The voip + phone + comment fields are saved in the event description automatically so we can easily show it directly in Google calendar. How would you expect it to work?

The Hangouts link gets automatically generated by Google when creating new events. There is an option to disable it through their API, but we currently don't support that, sorry.

Thanks laander, you led me to a solution for my first issue. We simply now pass in a real description for the event which prevents the display of the invitee phone number in that section of the invitation.

For the Hangouts link, okay, we can live with it for now. Can we keep this ticket alive for that as a feature request or would you like me to create a new one?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @laander ,

Is this issue already solved? I would also like to remove the hangouts link from the google invites, but don't know how.

Thanks in advance,
