Adobe Connect add-in for Microsoft Outlook

We have released an Outlook add-in for Adobe Connect to make it easier for users to schedule their Outlook events with Adobe Connect room details added seamlessly to the event invite. 

The Adobe Connect integration with Outlook allows users to browse through their list of rooms (inside their My Meetings folder), view room details, and easily add them to their Outlook event invite. This integration makes virtual meeting scheduling with Outlook faster and more efficient.

Users can also designate a room as a default room, allowing them to add it to any invite with a single click from the Outlook ribbon. 

To simplify the room creation process, the add-in includes a user-friendly workflow. By providing just two pieces of information – Room name and Room Type – users can create new rooms directly within the add-in. The newly created room is automatically added to the Outlook invite, making online meeting scheduling a breeze. Additionally, users can customize the URL, select from templates, or add telephony details to the invite.

The invite generated through the add-in is well-formatted and contains essential information, including the Room link, Help link, Meeting diagnostics, and optionally, telephony details.

The Outlook meeting integration software is publicly available on Microsoft AppSource. Users can install it themselves if IT administrators have permitted Outlook add-ins. Otherwise, IT administrators will need to deploy the add-in for their users. 

With this integration, you can seamlessly set up virtual meetings using Microsoft Outlook, leveraging Adobe Connect as the best online meeting platform. Whether you’re conducting online training with Adobe Connect or collaborating remotely, this tool simplifies the process and enhances virtual collaboration through Outlook

We are thrilled for you to try out this powerful integration and make your virtual meeting scheduling with Outlook more efficient and effective.
