Issue
How do I install the Zoom for Google Workspace add-on?
Resolution
Important: If you currently use the
Zoom Scheduler Google Chrome extension, we recommend that you uninstall the extension from your web browser before installing the Zoom for Google Workspace add-on. For more information on how to uninstall a Chrome extension, refer to the
Google Help Center.
Additional Information
If the Chrome extension is removed for Zoom from a device and the Google Workspace add-on is installed instead, meetings previously set up will still work, even though the Chrome add-on was used to create them initially, and now it has been uninstalled.
- Zoom meetings should remain in place, regardless of how they were scheduled, and there should not be any issues related to this matter
- Once the meetings are scheduled and in a Zoom account, they are okay as long as they are still showing up in the Scheduled Meetings area of the Zoom Account
- The Chrome extension and Google Workspace add-on are each tools to schedule a meeting
- Zoom tracks scheduled meetings independently of Google Calendar
- If someone wasn’t using the Chrome extension or Google Workspace add-on, they could still schedule a Zoom meeting directly in Zoom and then copy the meeting invite when setting up the Google Calendar event.
