    1. When you schedule a Zoom meeting for someone else, it does not go into their Outlook calendar. The only way for them to see these scheduled meetings is to log into the zoom web site. If you include them in the attendees list, they will receive the Zoom Meeting RSVP email which they can then click YES on so that the meeting is added to their Outlook calendar.

  8. You will now see that a Zoom meeting has been added to your event, and you can schedule it as you would any other Rutgers Connect calendar event. You have to view the full details of the meeting in order to view the Zoom button. It won't show up in the small window that pops up when you create a meeting. The Zoom meeting will be adjusted to match the time and date set by the calendar event. The details will be in the notes for the meeting and the title of the meeting will be taken from the title you put on the calendar appointment. If you edit the event in the future, the Zoom meeting will be updated accordingly.
