Zoom for Google Workspace add-on
With the Zoom for Google Workspace add-on, (external link) you can use Zoom to easily schedule, join, manage, and customize meetings from GMail and Google Calendar.
Important: If you currently use the Zoom Scheduler Google Chrome extension, (external link) we recommend uninstalling the extension and use the Zoom for Google Workspace add-on instead. 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. (external link)
