[CAL-2997] Changing "conferencing" app for existing events is unintuitive #13364

Quick walkthrough of Mark and my experience:

Decide to change conferencing to Google Meet
Go to event, no clear way to change
Go to Settings, "conference" option not under team, only for personal settings
Find apps page and install Google Meet app
Set Google Meet as default under "conferences"
Go back to team event
Hunt for awhile before realizing "location" is where you go to change the conference link
Add correct "location" of google meet
Book test meeting
Realize the link for old conferencing solution was still there
Go back to event settings, delete all locations, re-add the "default organizer" option (with no clue if it works or what it's bound to)
Book ANOTHER test meeting, confirm everything is good
Text Peer complaining about it

Expected experience:

Go to event settings
Scroll til I see the word "conference" somewhere
Click dropdown to change it to Google Meet

worth mentioning this is for round robin links

@ciaranha lets come up with a more intuitive way of changing location for round robin

PeerRich commented 7 months ago

i wonder if preinstalling more apps would help?

at least preinstall google meet for google calendar users?

t3dotgg commented 7 months ago

This was not for a round robin meeting

This is the biggest issue IMO, we get zero info in this dialogue. Only way to know it worked was to do a test booking

It's confusing that you can choose "Cal Video (Global)" or "Organizer Default", why aren't other installed apps available?

Hi Team,

Could we get an update on resolving the Google Meet integration for events? It's still challenging to change conferencing apps, leading to calendar invites missing meeting links even when Google Meet is set as default.

Any progress or temporary fixes available?

Thanks for looking into this.
