Set Up Conferencing
How to configure video conferencing for your meetings.
The assistant automatically adds video meeting links to your calendar events. Here’s how to set up your preferred conferencing provider.
Available conferencing options
Section titled “Available conferencing options”SkipUp supports several conferencing providers:
| Provider | Requirements |
|---|---|
| Google Meet | Google Calendar connected |
| Zoom | Separate Zoom OAuth connection |
| Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Calendar with work/school account |
| Personal link | Any URL you provide |
Setting your default provider
Section titled “Setting your default provider”- Go to your SkipUp workspace settings
- Click Conferencing in the sidebar
- Select your preferred default provider
- Save your changes
The assistant uses your default provider for all new meetings unless you specify otherwise.
Google Meet
Section titled “Google Meet”Google Meet is automatically available when you connect your Google Calendar. No additional setup required.
- Unique meeting links — Each meeting gets its own Google Meet room
- Integrated — Links appear directly in the calendar event
Zoom requires a separate connection:
- Go to Conferencing in your settings
- Click Connect Zoom
- Sign in with your Zoom account
- Grant SkipUp permission to create meetings
Once connected:
- Each meeting gets a unique Zoom meeting room
- The join link is added to the calendar event
- Meeting settings follow your Zoom account defaults
Microsoft Teams
Section titled “Microsoft Teams”Microsoft Teams is available when you connect a Microsoft Calendar with a work or school account.
Once your Microsoft Calendar is connected with an eligible account:
- Teams meeting links are created automatically
- Links appear in the calendar event
Personal meeting link
Section titled “Personal meeting link”If you prefer to use a static meeting link (like a personal Zoom room or Google Meet nickname):
- Go to Conferencing in your settings
- Select Personal link
- Enter your meeting URL
- Save your changes
This link will be used for all meetings. It’s useful if you have a dedicated meeting room URL you always use.
Changing providers per meeting
Section titled “Changing providers per meeting”If you need a different conferencing option for a specific meeting, mention it in your scheduling email:
- “Let’s use Zoom for this one”
- “Can we do a Teams call?”
- “No video needed—just a phone call”
The assistant will use the requested provider for that meeting only.
