Outlook (New): Zoom Meeting Add-In for MacOS

This service is for faculty, staff, and students.

 

Instructions

According to Microsoft and Zoom support, the Zoom Add-in is currently not supported in the New Outlook for Windows. 

This means:

  • You cannot add Zoom meetings directly from the New Outlook interface.

  • Zoom support recommends using the Outlook Web App or switching back to Classic Outlook for full Zoom integration.
