Export Meetings into external Calendars (like Outlook)

Hi,

is it possible to get a URL or ICS link for all the Zoom Meetings from an account that I can integrate or import in an external calendar like Outlook or Google?

I found the link to import events from external calendars into Zoom:
https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360000488243-Setting-up-calendar-and-contacts-integration

But unfortunately not the other way around!
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance 😃

Immanuel

    @ImmanuelVK There is no way to mass import your events outside of utilizing the calendar integration as above. 

    You will need to manually download the available ICS file from each event you have scheduled if needing to do it that way. When clicking into each scheduled meeting from the "Meetings" tab in the web portal, there will be an Outlook (.ics) option that can be used to download that ICS file.

    Hi  @J-Zoom-ATL, thanks for your Reply 😃

    Hmm I had hoped that a mass-export would be possible. That's a shame.

    But your 1st sentence makes me sit up and take notice: 
    "There is no way to mass import your events outside of utilizing the calendar integration as above. "

    →  So it is possible to synchronize the Zoom Meetings 2 ways with e.g. Outlook (both exporting and importing events from Zoom to outlook and vice versa) using the "sync" method of integrating e.g. Outlook?
    As I understood it, that is not possible with the methods described in this link, but just import from outlook, not view Zoom events in Outlook:
    https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360000488243-Setting-up-calendar-and-contacts-integration

    maybe I'm just confused, and they're the same.
    But since I wasn't yet able to activate the Sync for my company, I have no way of checking if it works both ways...

    Kindly, Immanuel

    @ImmanuelVK Apologies if I was misleading in my response. The calendar sync is only one directional from the calendar to the Zoom desktop client. The client will not sync meetings backwards to your calendar. 

    However, you could schedule Zoom meetings from your Outlook calendar via Outlook plugin or add-in or from Google via the Gsuite add-on or the chrome scheduling extension. A change in workflow in that regard would remove the need to import meetings into those mediums since they would be scheduled there initially.

    You can use APIs to export all ICS files for Zoom meetings and add them to your Outlook or Google calendar. If you are not a developer there is a Zoom app, Salepager, that lets you export and share ics files for your Zoom meetings.
