The following video services are currently supported:

  • Microsoft Teams

  • Zoom

  • GoToMeeting

  • Google Meet (*only available if you have also connected your Google Calendar account)

Connecting a video provider

To get started, navigate to “Your Account” → “Calendar” and then “Calendar Accounts.” Click “Add Provider” to connect additional video chat services to the system.

Now click on the desired video provider and log in with your account.

No sign-in is required for Google Meet – authentication takes place automatically when connecting a Google Calendar account.
