Overview

The Gong integration allows you to import call recordings from Gong into BuildBetter for AI-powered analysis. This is an import-only integration that uses Gong’s API to fetch calls based on date ranges and configurable filters.

Key Features

  • Date range-based batch import of call recordings
  • Automatic polling every 6 hours for new calls
  • Flexible filtering by participant, call type, and title keywords
  • Full transcript and metadata preservation
  • Standard BuildBetter analysis on all imported calls

Authentication

The Gong integration uses Basic Authentication with:
  • Gong API username
  • Gong API key
Note: OAuth is not currently supported.

How It Works

  1. Connect BuildBetter to Gong using your API credentials
  2. Configure date range and optional filters
  3. BuildBetter imports matching calls and transcripts
  4. Imported calls are processed through BuildBetter’s AI analysis
  5. BuildBetter automatically checks for new calls every 6 hours
