Calendar meeting integration with Clarizen

I would like to request some form of meeting integration from my calendar to Clarizen.

The purpose of this is to accurately track meetings and to save time.

Currently I create all the meetings manually as tasks, and some as recurring tasks (weekly meetings). However, creating the meetings are time consuming and removing recurring meetings that didn't occur is also time consuming.

There are probably numerous ways of doing this, however I suggest the following (open to other suggestions).

1. Each user is assigned a unique Clarizen email address.
2. When setting up a meeting, I include the clarizen email address in the participants list
3. Clarizen received the invite, and adds the meeting Subject, Time, Duration, participants list to a meeting inbox against my account.
4. I go to my meeting inbox and assign the meeting to the relevant project.
5. I add my notes and updated participants list to the meeting
6. I update a meeting in my calendar and the update mail is processed by Clarizen, updating all relevant fields.

Hi Danielle,

I just want to know if there is any update regarding this request?

Justin Bredenkamp logged a request for this and he was advised to check on the updates here but I see there is nothing this far.

Thanks

Unfortunately no updates yet. There are five stages of our CR process, and this request has made it to stage two (Definition). The next stage would schedule this into a future release. As soon as that happens, we will change this CR to "planned" and post an ETA.

I second the request, in a BIG way.  I send 30-50 meeting requests a day to customers and consultants, plus changes. Having this functionality in Clarizen would be a tremendous time-saver.

I would also like to be added to the 'requester' list as the functionality to have an Outlook meeting create/correlate to a Clarizen task, on behalf of my company's ~35 users. Has the stage changed since the last update from Josh this summer?

Please add us to this request.

It would also be good if resources were able to reject an meeting invite and then be removed from the task.
