Import ICS in Google Calendar add-on

[jean-eusebe]

Hi all!

I create some ICS files containing Zoom meeting details. I send them to Gmail accounts having the Zoom for Google Workspace add-on installed, and I want the add-on to display the details nicely, just like when I create an event from the add-on.

What do I need to include in the ICS file to do this? I tried with the -::~:~::~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~ delimiters in the description but it doesn't work.

I manage to do it for Outlook for example, if my ICS has a proper description, the Outlook add-on displays a "Join" button. I want kind of the same for Google Calendar.

Thanks for your help!

This comes down to the structure of the ICS file. If you are concerned about Google Calendar compatibility you may want to consider scheduling the meetings in Google Calendar directly. Alternatively, there is a Zoom app, Salepager, that lets you schedule Zoom meetings and send calendar invites that are compatible with Google Calendar and Outlook.
