Gmail Two-Way Sync is a feature that enables the bidirectional synchronization of emails between Gmail and Topline. It allows users to integrate their Gmail account with Topline, establishing a connection that keeps emails in sync across both systems. Any emails sent, received, or updated in Gmail will be automatically reflected in the CRM, and vice versa. The two-way sync ensures that users have a unified and up-to-date view of their emails, regardless of their platform. This feature streamlines email campaigns improves productivity, and ensures that important email communications are accessible in both Gmail and Topline.

If the user is added to multiple sub accounts, and has integrated the same Gmail account for Gmail Two way sync in all those accounts, the email from the contact will go to the conversations tab of all those sub accounts, but we will only retain the instance of that contact in that sub account to which the user replies to. Sync will be broken for all other instances.The additional filter of user being assigned to the existing contact also makes sure that the conversation will not go to sub accounts that the contact does not belong to.There are two cases of how the sync can be established.
You can email a contact from the CRM to initiate the sync between both platforms.
Gmail Sync also works if a contact that is already saved in the CRM sends an email to the User (who has Gmail Two Way sync integrated) on their Gmail Email address. The email would sync into the conversations tab. The contact also needs to be assigned to the user beforehand.
The sent email will show up in the sent inbox of the integrated Gmail account.
Gmail supports only ~500 emails per day and emails beyond that will be unsuccessful.All subsequent messages in the email thread will be in sync. Outbound emails from your email will reflect in the CRM and vice versa.
It also syncs over in the "Conversations" tab in the contact's conversation in Topline.
The supported attachment size limit for Gmail Two way sync is 25 MB._________________________
Access your profile settings on the left side menu.
New outbound emails from the CRM will start syncing with the newly added email address. Upcoming messages in the previously connected email ID (same thread) will stop syncing between the CRM & personal email.
This helps users change their connected email ID to another without disconnecting the previous connection.
This helps users to disconnect their connection and stop the sync with Topline. Post disconnect, emails or messages will not sync between both platforms. Click on the trash icon.
This will disconnect the email from Topline permanently.
Auto Bcc Sync allows you to include the smart Bcc address in the Cc or Bcc field when sending an email from Gmail or Outlook. Doing so will automatically add the conversation and contact to your CRM, streamlining communication and ensuring all relevant data is centralized.

How the sender domain mapping works for different types of emails:
Individual Email: On connecting a personal email account (Gmail), the Gmail email ID will be considered the sender domain for the emails the user sends for individual emails. Individual emails are sent directly from Gmail when 2-way sync is activated for the user. Be aware that Google sets a limit of 500 emails daily, which applies to this functionality.
Bulk Email: This will continue to be sent from the sub-account level email provider. 2-way sync won't affect this.
Workflow & Automation: In terms of automated emails, they are not sent from the 2-way sync but dispatched from the defined sub-account level providers. This arrangement seamlessly integrates your automated CRM workflows and the email dispatch system.
With this setup, users can leverage the 2-way sync for their one-on-one emails while also successfully sending bulk emails. The Gmail-imposed limit of 500 emails per day applies only to individual emails, so users can send bulk emails via LeadConnector/SMTP without worrying about reaching this limit. This is a thoughtful design feature, allowing users to conduct mass email campaigns without being constrained by Gmail's daily email cap._____________________
All inbound emails from existing contacts will be reflected in Topline and Gmail/Outlook inbox. This bidirectional synchronization ensures that you have a complete record of all your communication on both platforms.
No, removing a synced account will not delete any existing emails. Your previously synced emails will remain intact, and the synchronization will only affect new emails sent or received after the account is removed.
New emails sent or received after removing the account will not be synced between Topline and Gmail/Outlook. The synchronization between the two platforms will continue for existing emails, and new emails will not be included in the sync.
Yes, the Two-Way Sync identifies and syncs existing contacts from Gmail to Topline. Incoming emails from these contacts are automatically populated under the respective contact, but past emails (prior to the integration being connected) cannot be synced over.
New incoming emails from existing contacts will be reflected as new emails in Topline and Gmail. If the email belongs to an existing conversation thread, it will be displayed as a new email within the same thread.
Outgoing emails sent from Topline will be auto-logged in the Sent folder of the synced mail. Conversely, emails from the synced mail provider will automatically appear under the corresponding CRM contact's conversations.
If a user is cc'ed or bcc'ed, or included in multiple recipients in Gmail, this information is reflected under the respective contact in Topline, ensuring comprehensive visibility of all communications. No new contacts are created for the CC and BCC email address.
In this case, the email will be reflected under Topline, associating it with the respective contact, maintaining the complete conversation history.
In case of multiple recipients (to) in an email, the first contact becomes the conversation tab in Topline. All subsequent emails will appear in this thread.
Email originating from the CRM will be reflected only in the respective location. Subsequent replies and communication should also be specific to that location. However, emails from a contact to the CRM user should be reflected in all locations.
Auto Bcc Sync allows you to include a unique smart Bcc or Cc email address when sending an email from Gmail/Outlook. This automatically adds the conversation and contact in Topline, streamlining communication and data management.
In case of changed login credentials, Topline will require you to re authenticate and re sync the email to maintain a secure connection.
Any forwarded email to an existing contact will be treated as a sent email and synced under that contact in Topline.
Duplicate emails sent to multiple contacts will be associated with the first created contact in Topline.
