To add Zoom to Outlook, the primary method is to install the Zoom for Outlook add-in from the Outlook add-ins store, which works for both Outlook desktop and Outlook web versions. Here are the main ways to add Zoom to Outlook:
- Through the Outlook desktop app:
- Open Outlook.
- Go to the Home tab and click on "Get Add-ins."
- Search for "Zoom for Outlook" in the add-ins store.
- Click "Add" to install the Zoom add-in.
- Once installed, you will see the Zoom button in calendar events to add Zoom meeting links.
- Through Outlook Web:
- Open Outlook on the web.
- Create a new calendar event.
- Click the three dots (More actions) and select "Get Add-ins."
- Search for "Zoom for Outlook" and install it.
- After installation, use the Zoom option in the event to add Zoom meetings.
- Through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center (for admins):
- Go to the Admin Center.
- Navigate to Settings > Integrated apps or Services & add-ins.
- Add "Zoom for Outlook" for the organization.
There is also a Zoom Microsoft Outlook Plugin that is a traditional install for the desktop Outlook app (especially Windows), but the add-in is recommended for broader compatibility and is the current preferred method. After installation, Zoom features such as scheduling Zoom meetings or adding Zoom meeting links will be integrated into your Outlook calendar interface.
If desired, I can provide step-by-step instructions for a specific version of Outlook (desktop, web, or mobile).
