Cursor has expired error

When using the calls API to retrieve the records, I received an error code 400 with the error stating ‘cursor has expired’. This happens sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t. What are the possibilities that cause the cursor to expire? Does it have a time limit?

Pushing Historical Call Highlights from Gong to HubSpot

We recently switched to HubSpot a couple of weeks ago and noticed there’s no option in the Gong UI to push historical call details (like Call Brief, Key Points, and Next Steps) into our CRM.Has anyone ran across a scenario where they wanted that data and how did you go about getting that information added to Hubspot to actually be useful?Here’s what we’re looking for:Pulling historical highlights (Call Brief, Key Points, Next Steps) into HubSpot and mapping them to the right contacts, companies, or deals.

Downloading Transcript Data from Trackers

I am not sure if this is an available feature and I am just missing it, but is there a way to download transcripts from calls that only feature specific types of data? For instance, I am trying to download transcript data from calls where a specific competitor was mentioned. Is that something that can be done through a Tracker, Stream, etc.? Thank you in advance!

Analyse call transcripts in bulk for content marketing purposes

Hi, I’m a content marketeer at a SaaS company. I love Gong. I find myself reading through the call transcripts of our sales and csm people quite often in search of interesting topics, returning questions, pain points and detractors of prospects and customers. While I don’t mind doing this, it is time-consuming and difficult to prioritise or segment ideas, because I can only review them one at a time. I’m wondering if there is a way to automate the process and doing it in bulk to generate a better overview. I have been looking into creating a flow using Zapier, ChatGPT and Notion, but maybe there’s a more straightforward approach available within Gong itself.

How to see all the flows a person is in

Is there a report or way to see which flows a person is in.  I can go to the people tab and see they are in a flow but it doesn’t tell me which ones specifically.

Gong API is not recognising my filters or my cursor and just gives me first page everytime

I am trying to download all my detailed call records and call transcripts using the Gong API through postman. When I use the ‘GET’ function to get the calls, i am able to use the standard process of adding the cursor as a parameter to get the further pages. However, when I use the ‘POST’ function to get detailed call reports or transcripts, i enter the cursor into the body and it just returns the first page again every time. Ive tried so many workarounds, like using filters to get a date range of call reports or transcripts, but even the filters don’t work! It is driving me absolutely crazy! I’ve tried literally everything.

Admin/Ops reporting cadence

Hi everyone! 🖐I’m a new ops-based Gong admin, looking to report on our overall usage of the platform. I’ve been to the Team Members page to see our license allocation and usage, but I’m looking for a little more than that… we want to understand how our team is using Gong and if they’re getting value from it, at the end of the day.I asked ChatGPT and it suggested a number of dashboards and reports that live in either Settings > Analytics or Analytics on the left side panel, but I don’t have Analytics in my settings, nor do I have Analytics in my left side panel either 🤷🏻I have Insights, but from there just Team, Initiatives, Market. I’m a business and technical admin, so assume I should see everything?I’m curious what other teams are reporting on related to usage and engagement and how you’re leveraging that reporting to drive better usage of Gong within your organization (and better manage your license allocation!)

View all team members, regardless of heirarchy

I feel like I must be missing something… I’m an admin and want to see data/stats (on the Insights > Team page and elsewhere) for my entire organization - not by team, not having to select individual teams or users, I just want an option to see EVERYONE. Or at least to have a quick “select all” option so I don’t have to click team-by-team, one-by-one to add everyone. Am I missing something? We’re integrated with SF for most users, so the manager attribute is coming from there, but others are manually added (i.e. those without an SF account). I would think I could select our CEO’s team and that would include all cascading members below, but it doesn’t. I just want an easy way to look at everything at once. Ideas?

"POST- Retrieve detailed call data" Limitation

Hey, apologies if this is mentioned before but couldn’t find.When I hit POST - Retrieve detailed call data API, it only pulls certain amount of (89) calls’ data although I haven’t specified and date, call_id etc. limitation. In the API doc it only mentions a time frequency limitation but now I’m wondering whether there’s a size limitation as well, anyone experienced a similar issue? For reference, below is how my payload looks; payload_calls = { "contentSelector": { "context": "Extended", "contextTiming": [ "Now", "TimeOfCall" ], "exposedFields": { "collaboration": { "publicComments": True }, "content": { "pointsOfInterest": True, "structure": True, "topics": True, "trackers": True }, "interaction": { "personInteractionStats": True, "questions": True, "speakers": True }, "parties": True } }, "filter": { "__callIds": [] }}

Transcript Summary/Notes summary

Seems like there are some great AI solutions out there that are able to summarize quite a bit of content.  I really like the transcripts in Gong, but often times wish I had a summary of the transcript of the call or a highlight of important notes.  Does Gong have something like this already or is there anything in development?

Data in Gong Meetup: Beginners Guide To The Gong API

Thanks so much for joining our Beginners Guide To The Gong API Meetup.  It was exciting to have such an engaged group ready to get using the Gong API.  If you missed the meetup you can access it here. Top 3 discussion areas: Why to connect to the Gong API How to connect to the Gong API Practical use cases for getting started  One attendee shared their API interest was driven by the need to stop the time consuming task of downloading and editing CSV files.Two different attendees said the API is compelling because they want Gong data in their data warehouse for further analysis and combining with other data.  Resources:  We shared a Postman based Gong API Starter Kit, containing the most used Gong API calls — so you can start using the API today. Fast forward to minute 9:14 in the recording to hear more on this. We showed a spreadsheet based tool called Apipheny, that allows you to pull Gong data directly into Google sheets.

Deviations between monthly and quarterly Gong projection

Hey, we’re using the Gong projection quite a lot in order to test the bottom up forecast of our leaders. One issue we just came across is that when comparing the sum of monthly projections within a quarter with the quarterly projection we get two completely different numbers. For example, our Q3 projection is currently 24% higher than the sum of July, August and September projection. The weighted pipeline amount is 12.5% higher, the expected deals amount 38.7% and the applied win rate on the expected deals is a whopping 13%-points higher than the average of the three single months. While I understand that there might be slight differences when aggregating the data these difference seem to be too extrem and reduces the confidence in the quarterly number, especially since the monthly projection seem to be closer to the bottom up forecast. Could someone explain where this large difference is coming from and why e.g. applied win rates are so extremely different?Thanks!

Edit Prospect Highlights

Gong recorded a call and one of the bullets in the Prospect Highlights pane in the Call Spotlight references a competitor the customer mentioned. The problem is it didn’t capture the name correctly and I’d like to be able to edit it with the correct name for tracking and reporting purposes. Is this possible?

How to aggregate Activity in Gong, specifically inbound/outbound emails and calls

I want to model out the characteristics of closed won deals.   One of the metrics I am keenly interested in is the number of customer facing interactions.   I am less concerned about sales cycle as I am how many touches does it take.   I can see this information when I go to Account Status.   I can look deal by deal for all closed won activities but this is very time consuming.   What I can’t seem to find in places like insights is a roll up for all inbound email, outbound email and calls.   If I can see that in aggregate by seller that would give me amazing insight for what a closed won deal looks like.   That would be a massive win for me as a sales leader.   Is there a way to export this data?   I don’t mind doing the work in excel if I can’t get it in Gong.   I am trying to upload an image the icon here doesn’t seem to want to let me add the screenshot.   In short, if I go to account status I see exactly what I am after but I can’t do this across 50 deals a quarter and manually ent

Looking for help fine tuning Deal Board accuracy.

We use Gong with HubSpot.  Often times when reviewing the No Activity (no comms within 14 days) column within Drivers, the rep had actually spoken to the prospect within the past few days.  It appears the discrepancy almost always occurs when there are multiple product lines we sell, and a different rep might be speaking with someone else at that same company based on a different deal.There might be no way around that, but I’d love to figure out getting those percentages to be as accurate as possible.  i.e. Product rep will show 12% of deals have no activity within 14 days, but every one of those deals does have comms within that time frame.Anyone have some best practices on ensuring accuracy?
