moderated Calendar events - Zoom option #suggestion

Can the option to make a calendar event a Zoom meeting be added to that existing events can be changed from a non-Zoom to a Zoom event?
The only way to do this now is to cancel the existing event and create a new Zoom event. Brady Turner

To pile on - we have a half dozen zoom accounts - could we link them all?You need to be more clear; are you asking about connecting the zoom accounts under a Zoom umbrella account of some sort? Or for some unknown reason, adding all of your zoom IDs into a calendar event at Groups.io. -- Bob Bellizzi

Brady, if you have a repeating event you can do as Andy W said and when you save the event you are updating, you have an opportunity to update only the current one or all following.

You can already do that. Perhaps you're running into the restriction about repeating events not being Zoom-enabled? Mark

Unfortunately due to the way the Zoom API works, that won't work. We use oauth to get a token to use the API. To get that token requires the person to be logged into Zoom. Unfortunately that token has a really short expiration, something on the order of an hour, requiring re-verification by Zoom to get a new token. So we can't just store a bunch of tokens and let anyone use them, because they'd age out almost immediately. Thanks, Mark

Perhaps tangentially related and not specific to groups.io is that one of the challenges we've had over the years using zoom create calendar entries (irrespective of the calendar platform) is that it has basically proven to be a one-way pipe. Zoom will happily create calendar entries, but it has not demonstrated good hygiene at clean-up when meeting is changed or cancelled via zoom, leaving ghost calendar events scattered about. -- Kenny Paul, Technical Program Manager for ONAP The Linux Foundation Pacific Time Zone
