The Zoom for Outlook add-in(s) allows you to manage scheduling within the Outlook web and desktop apps and to add a Zoom meeting to a new or existing Outlook calendar event.
Considerations Before Installing
- For further integration with Office 365, set up contacts and calendar integration.
- If you receive an error when installing that says you are prohibited or do not have the correct permissions, you will need to contact your IT admin for assistance.
