How to Sync Your Zoom and Outlook Calendars and Contacts

From your FAU Zoom account settings, you can set up a calendar integration so that Zoom meetings on your Outlook calendar are synced to the Zoom Workplace app. This facilitates starting, joining or managing Zoom meetings whether you prefer using Microsoft Outlook or the Zoom Workplace app.

This also means that any Outlook invites that include Zoom join links/URLs will automatically be accessible via your Outlook or Zoom calendars. If a Zoom join link is not detected in the event invitation, the meeting will be listed as “Not a Zoom meeting” and will not have a join button. Furthermore, you can enable bi-directional syncing to ensure that the Zoom Meetings you create or update in either application will automatically sync across all integrated calendars. 

1. Visit https://fau-edu.zoom.us/profile
