Sakai 23 - Zoom Meetings: How do I add a Zoom meeting to my Google Calendar?
Important: The Zoom Meetings tool in Sakai is no longer available to instructors to add to course sites. Information related to this transition and the status of PLU’s licensing for Zoom can be found on the PLU Status Page blog. Sakai integration with Zoom Meetings will be unavailable for Summer 2025 course sites and beyond.
Google Meet is available to use as an alternative to Zoom within your course. To make use of Google Meet in Sakai, refer to How do I integrate Google Meet with Sakai? and the Transition Guide from Zoom to Google Meet.
How do I add a Zoom meeting to my Google Calendar?
For a meeting scheduled through the Zoom Meetings tool, the Zoom scheduling and meeting details can be copied to an event in Google Calendar. This can optionally be implemented while scheduling a new meeting. The steps below are for adding a meeting already scheduled through the Zoom Meetings tool to Google Calendar.
Note: If you’ve scheduled a recurring meeting through Zoom Meetings, the method described below will not transfer all instances of the recurring meeting to Google Calendar automatically. Instead a Google Calendar event of only one instance will be created, but you can revise this event in Google Calendar to match the recurrence scheduled in Zoom.
Go to Zoom Meetings.
Click the meeting title.
In the Upcoming Meetings tab click the title link for the desired meeting in the depicted in the Topic column.
Add meeting to Google Calendar.
Near the top of this view and click the Google Calendar button.
Choose an account to continue with Zoom.
A new browser tab will open, likely with a prompt to “Choose an account to continue with Zoom” as depicted below. Click your PLU Gmail account to continue.
Confirm your choices.
You will then likely be prompted to “Confirm your choices” as depicted below. Click Allow to grant Zoom access to your Google Calendar in order to copy the schedule details to Google Calendar.
Revise the calendar event, if needed, and click Save.
If you only want the event to appear on your Google Calendar click Save.
To share this event with students, refer to the article, How do I publish Zoom meetings for students on Google Calendar?
