How do I schedule meetings with the Office 365 Outlook Add-In?

    If you have the GoTo Meeting Office 365 Outlook Add-In, you can attach and remove your meeting details from a meeting directly from your Outlook calendar!

    Attention: It's time to switch to the new GoTo for Outlook integration! You can continue to use the GoTo Meeting Outlook plugin or add-in, but note that we are no longer supporting future versions and they may be discontinued by Microsoft at any time.

    It is highly recommended that you only schedule, update, and/or remove meetings in Outlook. This is because while all changes made with the add-in can manually be updated to reflect in your GoTo Meeting web account by clicking Update Meeting, changes made in the web account are not synced and duplicated in Outlook. In addition, any meeting updates made while in Outlook offline mode will not appear in your GoTo Meeting web account.

    Attach your meeting details to a meeting

    1. From the Outlook app, create a new appointment or meeting.
    2. Fill out the meeting information fields.
    3. Click GoTo Meeting in the upper toolbar.
    4. Attach the desired meeting details.
      • Use Personal Meeting Room – Use your Meet.GoTo URLs for this session. If you have many personalized meeting rooms, they will populate in the drop-down menu.
      • Generate New Meeting Link – Use a new meeting ID for this session. If you're running Outlook 2016, you will be prompted to schedule a one-time meeting or a recurring meeting.
    5. Click Update Meeting to sync any changes and send the meeting invite. Note that the Outlook add-in automatically uses your default audio settings.
