I’m using the POST /v2/users/{$host}/meetings.

I’m using an integration that was built by a 3rd party. They are not setting ‘push\_change\_to\_calendar to true’ in their API call so my meeting is not syncing to my Outlook calendar.

When I use postman to make the api call I was able to set '“push\_change\_to\_calendar”: true and the meeting sync’d to my outlook calendar. Also when I create a meeting directly in Zoom it gets sync’d to my Outlook calendar so the integration between Zoom and Outlook is working as expected.

I’ve asked the 3rd party to pass this setting through but that might take some time if it ever gets implemented so I’m wondering if there is something else I can do to turn this setting on by default for my account?

Thanks,

Caitriona

Hi @Caitriona  
Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to the Zoom Developer Forum.  
I would suggest you check if the Bidirectional sync feature is enabled.  
You will find it in your Profile settings \> Mail and calendar \> Data sync

Let me know if that helps!

Hi Elisa,

I have that setting turned on. My meetings sync to outlook if I create them directly in Zoom or if i pass ‘push\_change\_to\_calendar to true’ in the settings. The issue I’m having is when ‘push\_change\_to\_calendar’ is not set. The default is false for meetings created via an API call.

I don’t have permission to change the API calls for the 3rd party I’m working with so I need a workaround.

Thanks,

Caitriona

Hi @Caitriona  
Thanks for sharing more details.  
I dont believe there is a workaround on this, since we are not the developer of that integration, we coudl not make any chagnes.
