Issue/Question
How do I use and install the Zoom Outlook Plugin?
Environment
Zoom
Microsoft Outlook
Resolution
Starting in June 2020, Microsoft will be blocking injection-based plugins from running in Outlook for macOS, and will only be allowing add-ins available through the Microsoft store. WKU ITS recommends macOS users needing to schedule Zoom meetings through Outlook do so by logging in via the Outlook Web Application and
utilizing the OWA Zoom Add-In
.
To Download the plugin:
Download the
Zoom Microsoft Outlook Plugin MSI
file from the
Zoom Download Center
.
Once the download is complete, run the MSI file and follow the install wizard to complete the installation.
Once the installation is complete open Outlook. You should see the plugin in the Home ribbon at the top.
To schedule a meeting using the Zoom Outlook Plugin:
In the Home ribbon, click
Schedule a Meeting
. A new message window should appear along with a meeting settings window.
Select the options you would like the meeting to have, such as if you want participants to start with video on or off by default. Clicking
Advanced
Options
and selecting
Join Before Host
is
recommended
. When you are finished click
continue
.
The plugin will automatically create a link to the meeting in the body of the email. In the top ribbon of the email select the time and date for the meeting and enter in any participants you wish to send the link to.
When you are finished click send to schedule your meeting and send the information to your participants.
