Automatically add a Google Meet conference with calendar integration?

Ask for Help
1

Hey everyone,

has anyone figured out how to automatically add a google meet conference to an event that is created via the google calendar integration? Most users on my app are trying to book virtual appointments, but this does not seem possible with the current google calendar integration.

Also, having the setting “automatically add a google meet when an event is created” in my google calendar settings does not fix this issue. That only applies when someone manually creates an event.

Let me know if anyone has figured out a work around!

thanks,
Mike

I have no experience on this, but it seems like it’s not possible with the native integration.

If you try to call the API on your own, something like this should work: https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/YOUR_CALENDAR_ID/events?conferenceDataVersion=1

curl -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "summary": "Meeting with Team",
    "start": {
      "dateTime": "2024-10-25T10:00:00-07:00",
      "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles"
    },
    "end": {
      "dateTime": "2024-10-25T11:00:00-07:00",
      "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles"
    },
    "conferenceData": {
      "createRequest": {
        "conferenceSolutionKey": {
          "type": "hangoutsMeet"
        },
        "requestId": "unique-request-id"
      }
    },
    "conferenceDataVersion": 1
  }' \

Then you should be able to retrieve the Meet data from the event.
