Zoom Outlook Creating Multiple Zoom Meeting's and ID's

I had seen a few other posts about this, but none had the solution I ended up finding.

 

In the new outlook, I had added the Zoom Add-In.

When I would create a meeting and click the Zoom button at the top and click "Add Zoom Meeting" in the drop down menu, it would always create two meeting invites with different meeting ID's. 

 

SOLUTION: Instead of clicking "Add Zoom Meeting" Right there, I now click "Settings" and then "Add Zoom Meeting" from the settings menu. For some reason, this works and creates only one meeting ID! I assume it must be some sort of bug in the functionality of the Add-In. I had previously tried uninstalling the old plug-in so that I only had the Add-In within new outlook, but this was the only solution I have found that works and I have tested it numerous times now.

 

I am not sure if this is a bug on outlook's side or Zoom.

 

Hope this helps someone else!!

I m facing exactly the same issue and found exactly the same work around. It is weird but I was not able to find any answer here what is the reason behind.
