Zoom for GSuite add-on now available in U-M Google

March 18, 2020

To provide the best experience scheduling Zoom sessions from within Google Calendar, the Zoom for GSuite add-on is now available to install in U-M Google. To learn more about how to install and use this add-on, visit our U-M Google documentation page.

With the Zoom for GSuite add-on, you can use Zoom to easily schedule, join, manage, and customize meetings from Google Mail and Google Calendar.

  • Schedule a Zoom meeting with details from any email, automatically adding the topic, attendees, and attachments based on subject, recipients, and sent documents.
  • Automatically add Zoom meeting details to your Google Calendar invitation. 
  • Customize meeting options like join with video on, join with audio muted, and more.

Note: This add-on is not usable by Michigan Medicine users of U-M Google, as they do not use Google Calendar or Mail.

If you currently use the Zoom Scheduler Google Chrome extension, we recommend that you uninstall the extension from your web browser and use the Zoom for GSuite add-on. The add-on provides the same user experience across all web browsers and the Google Calendar mobile application. For more information on how to uninstall a Chrome extension, visit Google’s Help Center.

Note: Add-ons/apps within the G Suite Marketplace are currently disabled for the University of Michigan domain, with a few exceptions, like Zoom for GSuite. ITS is currently developing a formal process for requesting and evaluating add-ons/apps for U-M Google.
