To reduce scheduling issues related to expired or improperly scheduled Zoom meeting links, Information Technology Services (ITS) enabled a new calendar integration setting that will prompt all WSU faculty, staff, and students to sync their Outlook calendar with Zoom starting today, March 14.
If your Outlook calendar is currently synced with Zoom, you will not be impacted by this change. However, ITS recommends re-syncing your Outlook and Zoom accounts by following this WSU Knowledge Base article to ensure syncing permissions are up to date.
The calendar sync prompt will appear when you authenticate your WSU credentials in to Zoom via the web, desktop, or mobile application, and may not be immediate. If you authenticated in to Zoom before March 14, the prompt will appear the next time authentication is required.
You may also choose to skip the calendar integration; however, if you opt out of this feature, the calendar sync prompt will reappear the next time you authenticate in to Zoom.
ITS encourages you to sync your Outlook calendar and Zoom as soon as possible to prevent any unexpected disruptions when joining or creating WSU Zoom meetings. To enable calendar integration now, please review this WSU Knowledge Base article.
