Color coding of Activities on calendar based on Activity Type

Please add color to Activity Type setup and then use this color to display activities on the calendar. This is a big problem for us in trying to make the PipeDrive calendar useful. In addition, the activity sync to external calendar needs to pass along this information. Outlook for example uses categories to color code events. There needs to be a way to map activity type or another category field to the synced category.

    Unfortunately no status update. At the moment this hasn't been taken in as a priority and is still on the backlog of ideas. I'll nudge our team again to take a look but can't make any promises sorry.

    Please seriously look into this. It  would be tremendously helpful.  If Google calendar can do it, the same should easily be  able to be done for the pipedrive calendar.    

     it doesn’t even have to be a calendar sync, but the ability to list the task/meeting/phone call/etc as a particular color to stress the importance for example would be wonderful

    Hi, 

    I must say this upgrade would be helpfull for some of my team, as for myself.
    We are still very dependant of MS Outlook for a lot of reasons, and the activity color coding is one of them.

    Could we have any feedback ?
